If I'm not mistaken you don't get very good caching on a remote network file by default.

Which is why JTAlert is optimized to minimize direct access to Log files, either locally or remotely.

JTAlert will only perform a direct access of a log file in the following circumstances...

1. When a callsign is FIRST decoded to perform a B4 check for the current Band/Mode.
   
   
2. When confirming a QSO was logged by reading the log. Past bad experiences with other loggers has shown that the status reported by the logger (via its api) after logging may not be correct and cannot be relied upon. HRD was notorious for reporting logging success when the QSO was never logged. Direct reading of the log avoids that.
   
   
3. When performing the Alert database rebuild.
