Bad performance when copying EFS-encrypted files

I have found what is probably a bug in Vista and/or Windows 7: when
copying EFS-encrypted files to a different computer without EFS
performance is severely degraded. This is caused by 30 second timeouts
during which the copy target looks for non-existent domain
controllers.

I have described the issue and a workaround in detail here:
