Yash,
I check my sites regularly throughout the day and they usually seem fine. However, as I was reviewing my log files tonight, I noticed that sometimes the server is slow (15 seconds or more). For the most part, things are good, but once in a while I see these slow-downs in the log files. There doesn’t seem to be any emergency here. In fact I haven’t experienced any problem myself; I’ve just seen it in the log files. But the last time things slowed down, you said I should report it right away – so there ya go. By the way, my sites are not using MS-SQL, so this is not lag to the sql server.
Could you tell me around what times this happened?
Also, we plan to upgade Win1, Win2 and win4 to dual processor, dual SCSI machines within the next week. We are working on our upgrade plans so that would put a permanent end to the periodical slowness customers may be experiencing on these servers
Win5 and Win6 are our new servers (where new customers are being signed onto) and they are handling great. They are dual processor, dual SCSIs. If you want to be shifted to Win5 or Win6 immediately, open a ticket. if you’d prefer to wait, no problem
Please note that the vast majority of times in my logs are less than 1 second and performance is fine. As I stated, this only happens once in a while.

This sounds great. Are you planning to downgrade these servers to 2000, or will you keep them on 2003?

Based on what you have planned for win1, I think I’d rather wait. In fact, what effect, if any, does the upgrade to Win1, Win2 and win4 have on the plans to migrate all sites to win5 and win6?
ASP sessions are still expiring prematurely on the Win2003 machines
Also, there are stability issues with ODBC/JET/Win20003 which Microsoft has no answers for yet

I use session variables in limited areas of my sites, but have not encountered any problems. Perhaps I’ve been lucky.
I am still wondering about my last question though: does the fact that you are upgrading the hardware and downgrading the software on win1, win2 and win4 mean that you are not going to migrate all sites to win5 and win6? If that’s the case, I don’t have a problem with that, as all the servers would be pretty much the same (aside from the connection to the sql server).
This was about a half hour ago. It seems fine now, but the transaction in question is a simple aspx page that does not access any database, does very little processing, and took over 22 seconds.

22062 milliseconds, or 22 seconds and 62 milliseconds. Most of my log entries are in the 062 range, which is 62 milliseconds (sub second).

Thanks. I never checked my log files for this. I’ll have to check this out.
Yash,
After checking my sites periodically throughout the day and examining the log files tonight, I found that there were no slowdowns and performance was excellent .
I don’t know what you guys did, but Win1 was running great today (Friday).
I was noticing this yesterday but it was temporary. I didn’t bother mentioning it because it fixed itself after a while. I wasn’t happy but it didn’t last long so it was acceptible (knowing that we will be migrating back to 2000 where I never had these sorts of problems).

You’re right yorri. I noticed some rather long times in my logs from yesterday, but it was temporary and I decided to let it go.
