Maya2015 slow startup with MAYA_PLUG_IN_PATH over VPN
posted by Michal Fratczak on Feb. 8, 2016, 5:51 p.m. (1 day ago)

Hello
I'm experimenting with running maya with connecting to network through OpenVPN.

My setup is a fresh windows7, OpenVPN, fresh and default maya2015_SP5 installed to local harddrive. This starts in about 20 secs.
Now, when I add envvar MAYA_PLUG_IN_PATH pointing to a folder accessible through VPN, and then start maya, it has a long period of unresponsiveness just after GUI shows up. So it's like 20secs to boot and then about 2 minutes of doing nothing when I can barely move viewport or select menus.
This is with empty folder containing no plugins at all - and with my real env setup maya takes forever to start.
What's interesting adding this folder to MAYA_PLUG_IN_PATH after maya is launched causes no such freezes - but unfortunatelly this is not an option for me.

any clues ?
