Vi in Linux Vs Sun Solaris

Hello All,

there is some strange behaviour of VI editor while i am working in SunSolaris.
I am trying to open a small file using vi abc.txt and it take around 5 mins for that file to open.. While i loggin to LINUX box which same profile and environment settings and opening the same file with vi abc.txt it open very fast.
I work in production evironment and frequently login to Sun and Linux boxes ..

Can anyone tell what changes i need to do so that i get same response of opening file in Sun Solaris as i am getting in LINUX


Thanks,
Ravi Sadani

Maybe you are using vi that is accessed through NFS? Or maybe that small file is remotely mounted?

even in both cases my file is same and my enviornment settings as same .. Its only OS changes not more than that.

This may seem like an odd answer. But you have not given any detail that can help in identifying why this happens. The best answer that can be given based on your information is "Find out why it takes so long and fix it"

What have you done so far to identify the problem?
