TestFile, version 1.03
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


About:
=====
This is a simple utility to assist network administrators checking the very basic network performance in file save/read operations.
The program is FreeWare and maybe used and copied by anyone.


Usage:
=====
Just select a network drive in "Testing Work Path", specify the Size for the TestFile, and hit the magic button...


More Information:
==============
The program creates a file named "$TEST$.TMP" in the Testing Work Path folder, fills it with dummy information, and times this operation.
Then delays for a few seconds, 
Then reads the same files and times it again.

Note that the results are very in accurate because they are affected by many parameters - 
CPU, RAM, OS, HardDisk, NIC, Media, etc...
on both workstation and server.
The program does not disable file caching - so this affects the test also.

You can test network or local drives.
If you want to test a floppy drive, it is recommended to run the test in Safe Mode.
