For some reason when i run the dir command on a network drive it is extremely slow compared to running it on a folder with a similar number of files/folders on a local drive. Is there a reason this is so slow or is there a workaround for the problem? I am looking to get the list of files/folders within the directory as well as whether it is a file or a directory.
I am running windows 7 with matlab r2012b
