Since then, I have made complementary tests and observed the following : the
problem only appears when the RPC server's host is designated by its hostname on
a FDDI LAN ; when the same host is designated by its hostname an a ETHERNET LAN,
elapsed time between client and server remains low even when the size of
transmitted data exceeds 4 kbytes !
Do these informations enlight you more ?
Answers should be send at godin_at_harlem.stna7.stna.dgac.fr.
Thanks a lot to give attention to my problem.
