Apparently it consumes huge overhead, and can draw a Server nearly to its knees from time to time. I do have 2 clients running Exchange Servers. They both recently ugraded their Servers (all not just Exchange). In both cases they left Exchange on its own server, as opposed to trying to comingle Server processes from 2 older units to one newer, faster Server. I bet it was due to Exchange Server's demand for RAM and other resources.
