Hi again aengus,

I defer to Dave Patrick on this one. :-)
I just ran perfmon on my server and client and setup a quick test to see
what happened and sure enough my client's CPU and IO spiked while the file
server stayed level.

Thanks Dave!

Hi,

A drive on a Windows 2003 server is compressed and a user is reading
and writing files on that drive over the LAN from his desktop
computer. Which computer is doing the processing associated with
compressing and decompressing the data? Is it the server, or the
user's desktop machine?

Thanks,

Aengus.
