Is there a directly connected drive which contains the AD database
(sysvol)?
Directly connected = SCSI, SAS, SATA, IDE, withOUT any RAID controller.
If so the write caches on those directly connected drives are disabled
when
it's a DC. If you want to call that "added overhead of having AD", feel
free.

I have a new install of WSUS on the server that had it before. I wiped the
drive and reinstalled everything. This time round I am finding that WSUS
is
running very slow listing and approving updates and just very slow in
general. The only difference is that now the machine is a DC. I saw some
info about running a SQL script that is supposed to speed it up but its
very
dated. Anyone else have this problem before?
Full disclosure: This server is old. P3 1.4GHz w/ 768MB but it didnt run
this slow before. Maybe its the added overhead of having AD now?
