It takes an age for changes in a Windows share to show up on my Mac

I thought this would be a pretty-much instantaneous affair, but I can add to/change a file while working on my connected Windows box but it can take around 10-30 minutes for it to appear in my networked Mac's Finder.

Is this driven by Windows or by the Mac and what can I do to speed it up? I am currently working on iMovie, needed a file on Windows which was in a temporary folder so I moved it where I normally put my windows video files and it is now invisible and has been for 10 minutes! I know the two will eventually synchronise but this sosrt of thing messes with my work-flow.
