Hi.
We got a new hard drive which is apparently slowing down my FARR searches.
But maybe altering the settings in FARR would help.

I see where I can set a delay between the time I stop typing and the time FARR begins searching, but I can't see where to actually set the duration of the delay.

1500 ms would be ideal.
Is that setting in the ini file?

Thanks

the delay is dynamically calculated based on length of what you type.  i can add an option to tweak it.

Whoo thanks!
It worked fine dynamically until we got the new RAID.

P.S.
How about a column for file sizes too. No one could tell me if that would make the app too slow or not.
