[p4] 1200 to 2000 file checkouts

Yes and no.  

They have their client spec set to revert unchanged on submit but they
are unable to get that far. 
They checkout a project with 1200 files then as they drill down through
the directory structure P4V basically hangs.  

The client is doing a "p4 fstat -P -Olh" and a "P4 dirs" on every
directory they click on and that basically hangs the client when the
directory holds 1200 files.

Do they have the "revert unchanged files" option selected?  It may be
the comparison process that's causing the hold up.

Howdy everyone, 

I have a group that is starting to use Perforce and they routinely sync
and check file sets in the 1200 to 2000 file range.  We have noticed
that the latest Perforce server and P4V client basically hangs when
working with file sets that large and P4Win isn't much better.

Anyone else dealing with this issue have any suggestions?  

Using the command line is really not an option for these folks.  These
are a bunch of content managers and editors responsible for creating
training materials for our customers and staff.


Thanks
