\nIt looks like this user stored their Favorites on a network share\nthat is not responding.\n<\/p>\n
\nThanks a lot for this information.\nCan you help me understand how do we tell that the dump\nindicates this file I\/O is causing IE to hang?\nHaving this information would help me better explain this to the customer.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\nI wasn’t sure how to respond to this.\nIf you see a function with the words\nFile and one of Open, Read, or Write in its name,\nthere’s a good chance that it opens, reads, or writes a file.\nYou probably want to look to see what file is being opened,\nread from, or written to,\nbecause that may give a clue why the I\/O operation is stuck.\n<\/p>\n
\nIt turns out that this customer redirected the user’s Favorites\nto a network location.\nThe Internet Explorer folks tell me that this is not an explicitly\nsupported scenario in the sense that they did not do any tuning\nto make this scenario work well,\nand frequent hangs are consequently not unexpected.\nIf you redirect the Favorites to a network location,\nthen you get what you get.\nAnd if that server frequently becomes unavailable,\nthen what you get often sucks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
