That's probably because XSI Explorer is trying to collapse the images.
However, looking at the same type of explorer in Shake there is zero
delay... Something must be going on.
People who find it quick, are you working on Linux? Might this be a
evil MS problem? :)

In windows, I can navigate to a sub-folder in the render_pictures folder

In XSI, if I open a browser and try to navigate to the same folder, it
takes approximately 5 minutes to open.
Is there any advice for checking where the problem is?
Thanks
