resolve

I would like to know how to speedup the perforce auto resolve when doing integration (merge yours and theirs if no conflicts exists).

Currently is taking hours for ~5000 files when running it using a proxy server even if the proxy server has the files pre-cached.

Also p4v interface doesn't give you any hint regarding the progress of the task, you do not know if it will finish in a second or next year.
