Actually, the trouble began when I applied the hotfixes listed below.
Upon further conversation, I removed these hot fixes.
And now, the problems I am seeing are:
When outlook is launched, AFTER it looks like it is ready to go, (You
can see your folders and email etc.)
it freezes for approx 60 seconds and then seems to work fine. This
occurs on ALL workstations.
But oddly enough, Web Outlook works just fine.
Some users, when they create a new email, or reply to an email, will
experience a wait of up to a minute before the message is actually sent. The
message will stay on their screen and basically lock up outlook until it sends.
Obviously, this is very frustration, and I am not sure what to do next... Any help
would be appreciated

Then it isn't a flat-file backup any more. As soon as you use the agent
for Exchange, it is a Full Online backup. A Flat-file backup would be
considered an Offline backup when nothing is being written to the
databases (thus the files are not open and are "flat").
Sounds like it is working fine for you.

I had HTML display problems after this patch. As a test I applied the
DirectX 9.0 runtimes that show up in Windows Update, rebooted, and all
was well. I can't say that it wasn't just the reboot that fixed it,
however, I'm wondering if the issue wasn't interaction between that
patch and W2K SP4, something like that.

No known Network issues.
CPU is at 2%
Mem is at 505232 of 2 GB
Attributes pop up instantly.
I did notice on reboot, that the info store took about 10 minutes to
start. (9GB)
I did install the hotfixes that MS released yesterday. They were
installed last evening.

Are there any network problems going on locally?
Can you get attributes from a user in the GAL very fast, or does it seem
abnormally slow?
Do you have ant sniffer, netmon type things? It sounds like a ds
problem. Outside email would use smtp and dns. So may not see a delay
there, perhaps categorizer issues?
Just sorta rambling now, sorry..

Since I began the rebuild this fine a.m., I have been experiencing
periods of sluggishness.
But ONLY internally.
When sending an internal email, it could take upwards of 30 seconds
before the email gets sent.
With any outside address though, it is instant.
Not finding anything in the logs.
Kind of at a loss.
Any help would definitely be appreciated.

Is there a way to check it's progress?
Is there a performance hit?
Any idea how long it should take with a 9-10 GB priv.edb?

As long as it takes, and no, you can't stop it. It depends on DS access
speed, processor, etc..

I know how to do that.
I am talking about when you do a rebuild of the Recipient update
service.
My question is, how long should it take with a Priv.edb size of 9-10 GB?
And should you see a performance hit while it goes on?
