I am running CF 4.01 on Win2000 Adv Server machine that is anything but maxed. It is by far faster and more stable than NT4.0. The machine is a Celeron 533 with 256 Megs of RAM and a single IDE drive. It is a test server for development, an it blows NT 4.0/CF4.01 out of the water in terms of speed on the same equipment. My 2�cents worth Thanks, David Sparkman -----Original Message----- From: Steve Bernard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 07, 2000 4:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Last post: How do I Optimize Win 2000 (IIS) for Warp speed with C old What are the specifics of the environment in which you tested? I noticed a perceived slowdown on my workstation when I tested W2k Pro. The GUI and things in general seemed a bit sluggish so I switched back to NT 4.x Wks. All the benchmarking that I have seen on W2k Server, most by independent labs and/or researchers, has shown it to be significantly faster than NT. The caveat to this is that the platforms have all been maxed out. By this I mean they all had >= 1GB RAM, numerous UW SCSI-3 HDs, a meaty RAID controller, >= dual PIII CPU's, ... you get the point. My only W2k server is such a box, so I'm not really in a position to say, "it runs great on less than maxed out hardware", but my impression has been that it does require a hardware increase proportional to the NT 3.51 -> 4.0 upgrade.

I've been pondering moving some servers to W2K as I've like W2K on the desktop and mostly I've heard that it's a lot more stable and IIS 5 is supposed to be significantly faster. Seemed like a good idea, until I read this post. Could anyone provide further insight into this issue?
