SUMMARY

SNA Server 4.0 Service Pack 2 (SP2) includes some performance improvements that result in faster file access when using SNA Server's Shared Folders Gateway (SFGW) feature.

MORE INFORMATION

The internal cache sizes used by the SFGW feature have been increased in SNA Server 4.0 SP2, which accounts for some of the performance improvements when accessing AS/400 and S/36 shared folder files.

SNA Server 4.0 SP2 also includes other performance enhancements that benefit all Advanced Program-to-Program Communications/Common Programming Interface for Communications (APPC/CPI-C). Because SFGW is an APPC application, it also benefits from these performance improvements.

For additional information about the other APPC performance enhancements in SNA Server 4.0 SP2, please see the following articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
