Without knowing more about your environment, it is hard to tell. Also, just having the results from only one perfmon counter (rpc ops/sec) isn't going to say what the problem is.
Can you provide more details about your system configuration? CPU's, Memory, Hard drives, RAID levels, plus the results of the other counters. For example, you say that the rpc operations/sec is high. What does your RPC requests look like? What do your disk reads and writes/sec look like? What do your memory counters look like? (memory\pages/sec, page reads/sec, page writes/sec). The document should help you figure out where the bottleneck is. It sounds like it is a bottleneck on the server, so now you need to figure out what the bottleneck is (cpu, disk, memory, etc) Ben Winzenz Microsoft Exchange MVP Network Engineer Gardner & White Ph (317) 843-3418 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Isom, Aaron Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2004 11:51 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Requesting Data from Server Thanks. It appears that RPC Operations /sec are high. They are around averaging over 100 on the MASTER server. The average response time on the 2nd server is below 40 almost ALL the time. What do you think might be the problem?

Client, Network, and Server. This doc helps you figure out which one through a series of perfmon counters.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem or at least how to troubleshoot it? If I check the connection status from within Outlook 2003 when I get the message, I see really slow average response times from the Exchange server. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 150-500 however, when things are working normally the times are less than 40!
