The Watched Folders module uses a lot of temporary files and stores
uncompressed copies of the images for OCRing and document
creation, which may take up to 25MB per page.
IRISDocument stores temporary files both in the IRISDocument
work folder and the Windows temporary area.
Tip: defragment your pc's hard disk once in a while.
 Other tips for using the Watched Folders module.
o Avoid selecting superfluous options.
Not only do they slow down the recognition process, they also
increase the risk of OCR errors.
o Limit the number of Watched Folders to 10.
The more Watch Folders you have the more time is needed for
IRISDocument to check for content changes.
o The Watched Folders Tasks must be of reasonable size.
Prefer more tasks to bigger tasks.
o Do not use a single folder as input and output folder.
o Do not use the work folder as input folder.
o Make sure IRISDocument Server does not reboot
automatically, e.g. after automatic Windows updates.
