slow network: netrw slow even on local HD

I have a very slow network connection, so accessing letter drives are painful. For that reason, I work off the local HD as much as possible, then painfully synchronize my HD content with my network drive when I feel it is unwise to put it off.

One problem that puzzles me is that netrw is slow even accessing folders in my HD. Is the cause well known, and is there any low-effort way to prevent this? I am in a locked down environment, so I'm limited to older versions of vim and netrw:

VIM - Vi IMproved 7.3 (2010 Aug 15, compiled Oct 27 2010 17:59:02)
MS-Windows 32-bit GUI version with OLE support
Included patches: 1-46

netrw v140

Thanks.
