Hello Paul,

Thanks for your help and patience.
I tried with r- Q but same issue, emacs freezes when I start editing the
file (I can open it but not modify its content), For this test, the file is
stored locally (no remote cifs access, no encryption),

I do not have the problem with encfs on a local directory, only when the
encrypted directory is stored on another server accessed with cifs. I do
not have any problem with a remote directory accessed with cifs it if is
not encrypted (I only have the issue when I use an encrypted directory with
cifs).

Cheers,

Bertrand
