Slow P2 ingest in Prelude CS6

[Kyle Fordrung] ” I have noticed after my testing that the progress bar seems to hang for a while between 1% – 4% and then goes from 5 to 100 almost instantly”

That is normal. This is because it’s coping the files in alphabetical order. So all the folders with lots of small files copy first, which takes a while because the copying never gets up to speed, then it hits the VIDEO folder last and the speed ramps up.

I have yet to find a program that didn’t copy this way.

Thanks John.

I just found it odd, because both P2 Viewer and P2CMS have progress bars that seem to go at real-time when ingesting.
