I've been considering using dropbox for a few reasons, since it seems to solve a lot of potential headaches. However, one thing I didn't find a lot of information on were the drawbacks from a performance perspective. What sort of drawbacks from a performance standpoint can I expect when interacting with files inside my dropbox folder?
Two examples where this might be a concern:
1) Modifying a few hundred files and then saving
2) Opening a drop box folder on a pc which hasn't been used in a while (less concerned about this one).
By "opening a Drobox folder on a PC which hasn't been used recently", do you mean that the PC is not up-to-date with the current set of files from Dropbox? – iglvzx – 2011-11-22T21:15:00.267
yes, for example if it shows you what is there immediately and then updates as it syncs or forces you to wait for the folder to complete syncing. – Eric – 2011-11-22T21:42:31.013
