I cannot answer your question exactly but I have the feeling that
sometimes IDL is not very efficient on network storages.
There have been several topics about this in recent years, one of them
(related to NetCDF) can be found here:

Reimar Bauer proposed a solution based on caching (make a local copy of
the files and then destroy them) which I still use today:

https://idlsource.fz-juelich.de/hg/icg_lib-11.0/file/tip/idl _work/rb_lib/caching.pro

Unless you want only a small part of the data stored externally, it will
often be faster to copy the file locally and then process it than going
over the network (at least this is my experience)

Cheers,

Fab
