Hi Folks,
I've got ArcGIS Explorer set up the way I want it (minus basemaps, but that's another post) and am having some performance issues. I am working in a disconnected environment with access only to our internal network. My deployment folder contains 27MB of information. The largest files are my streets.dbf (12.5MB), sea.shp (5.5MB), and land.shp (5.5MB) - for a geographically large city (300+ square km's). I have a few (3) large files used by the FeatureLabeler addon (375k to 760k). The rest are smaller files (< 63k) to support 5 shape files containing incident data, 1 hotspot layer, and 1 note. Basemaps have been cleared. Ideally, I???d like to create my own basemaps using my ortho photos but, again, that is another issue I am struggling with and thought I better resolve the performance with what I have first.
I???m wondering, are the sizes of my files reasonable? Is the number of items published reasonable? Could it be ArcGIS is still trying to connect with the Internet as I navigate thus slowing me down? The performance I am getting right now is a real issue...
Any thoughts and suggestions would be most welcome!
