If this version of csh doesn't cache things it finds in PATH, it could be trawling your network drives every time you run a command. Changing the order of your PATH may help, if it can find it on local disks first it may not need to trawl your network drives for everything.

If there's only a very few things being run from your network drives, consider running them with absolute paths. You may be able to store that path in a variable to keep your code short and snappy.
