Good luck! -- Jeff -----Original Message----- From: Michael Muller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2008 9:32 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Slow machine - JRun? I posted about this a few weeks ago (JRun pegging for ten to twenty seconds then dropping back down, etc), and the issue seemed to have gone away when we moved everything to another machine. However, in the past week our new machine has become unbelievably slow again, but with the performance meters doing normal work, jumping around from 0 to 20 to 0 to 30 to 0 to 5 to 0 to 40, etc. Every once in a while it pops up above 60 but for the most part it's pretty low. However, there is a lot of I/O going on, and the box itself is sluggish when I log in via RDS, to the point where typing in the login name is an excerise in moon lander control response sluggishness. I just took snapshots of the Task Manager and uploaded them here: http://support.mullertech.com/images.cfm?gpt=3&g=88&vcid=9 This site is hosted on the box so let me know if it takes a while to load the images. Any advice would be appreciated. BTW, are there any tools that anyone knows about that can diagnose what all the I/O work *is*? Like, is this all http loads (image and video files being directly accessed via http) or some internal virtual memory swap fest?
