Hi matt,
You can suggest other members change folder properties that specify when to
download new files.
To change a folder's download properties:
1 Right-click the folder and select Properties.
2 Select the Download tab in the Properties dialog box.
3 Set the Manual options, and click OK.
Then, the users can download the files whenever he wants.
In addition, I would like to provide the following information to you:
Recommendations for optimal performance
For optimal performance in a file sharing workspace, keep the following in
mind:
Avoid adding large files (>50 MB) to a file sharing workspace.
Avoid adding large numbers of files (>100 files) at once.
Avoid storing large numbers of files (>500 files) in a file sharing workspace.
These numbers are recommended based on Groove's minimum system requirements.
Systems exceeding the minimum requirements will be able to handle larger
numbers of files with less performance degradation.
Other factors that may impact performance include:
Degree of change to files in the file sharing workspace. The more
frequently files are changed, the more performance is degraded. Larger
spaces can function with less degradation if they do not have a high degree
of change.
Download settings of workspace members. Members who use manual download
settings avoid requiring other members to send data on each update. This
improves overall performance for all members.
Starting and stopping Groove frequently. For optimal performance, keep
Groove running.
Running earlier versions of Groove. All members of the workspace should use
the latest version of Groove to ensure optimal performance.
