[TRLog] Delay when using a network with large files

[Thomas M. Schaefer]

Sure thing...

In CW run mode, I enter the call and hit enter to send the exchange. I type
in the other exchange,. then hit return. There was about a 3-4 second delay
before it would let me send CQ again. It appears to be related to saving the
entry to the log.

Are the entries sent to the network as part of the log save process?
Does the program wait until the record has made it around the loop to
continue?

If it matters, this was a 6 station operation with all computers tied
together.

Thanks,

Tom NY4I
