I have seen a delay too.... I did wonder about it.... However, I am testing out AIS on an old HP Tablet (a TC1100) & well.... interestingly enough, there is no delay. Then again, the tablet doesn't have a CD/DVD drive, since I use it without the dock most times. I also don't have any other disks in the computer a lot of the time. (I mention this because you can use an SD card with the TC1100.)
Where I've really noticed a delay was on my old desktop, which has a floppy disk drive. (Ancient, I know...
) Every time I open My Computer, the FDD is checked for if a disk has been inserted. (Or at least that's what it looks like to me....)
When I open My Computer, the FDD light comes on for a few seconds, like it does at the startup of the computer.
Has anyone else seen a delay?
Edit: I reformatted the desktop. The only programs I added thus far are AIS & Spybot. Before adding AIS (.462), there was a slight delay before My Computer shows the folder contents. The delay with AIS makes the searching flashlight icon appear & the FDD lights up for a moment to see if anything's been inserted. The delay is also present in .507.
After the initial flashlight icon delay, the delay seems to be less (with re-opening My Computer over time). (I don't know if it's due to not many programs being on the desktop yet.
