Improve how to detect deleted files
When revision controlled files is deleted from disk and refresh is done on pending changes it is updated very slow. It can take minutes.
The workaround is to go to Items. Marked the deleted files from the list and select "Update forced". Then the refresh is fast again.
But I think refresh in PlasticScm should detect deleted files automatically and handle it in a better way.
It takes 1.3 seconds to scan the entire wk in a regular computer using plastic 4.1 in a wk with about 50k files

Hi Roland,
A couple of improvements were made in PlasticSCM 4.1.10.328 version regarding deleted files detection. I suggest you to upgrade to that version or a newer one and check the performance,
Thanks! -

Roland, I do this continuously and it is blazing fast. There're only a few ways it can be slow:
* Your machine is low of memory... really low.. even a "dir /s" would take forever
* Your workspace is mounted on a network drive... again, a "dir /s" would dieCheck these two because normally they're the root of the problem.
About "detect deleted files automatically", isn't it what we currently do? What do you mean otherwise?
Thanks!
