Network Speed
Using a 100 Megabit network connection is optimal. Using a slower network connection affects the refresh rate when
panning or refreshing the map view.
Virus Scanner Software Settings
AnySite performance slows when virus software scans AnySite data. The performance decrease is noticeable with a net-
work installation when multiple people access AnySite.
AnySite opens many data layers for display in the map view. A data layer consists of five files that AnySite launches to
display the layer. There may be 16 to 19 layers on display in the map view. AnySite queries all of the layer files when you
pan or refresh a map.
To improve performance, set the virus software to exclude the AnySite data directory from the virus scan (the
C:\Program Files\MapInfo\AnySite_XX\Data directory for example), or to exclude the following file type extensions from
the virus scan:
.tab – A MapInfo table file that describes the format of the data.
.dat – A file containing tabular data.
.map – A file that describes the graphic objects.
.id – A cross reference file that links the data with the graphic objects.
.ind – An index file for searching for map objects.
