When one computer is slow and another is fast, I would assume something extra is running on the slow computer. Look at the task manager processes and see if something is running (check CPU usage). Make sure to check the box to see processes running from all users.

If you are talking about the server that would affect all the computers. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kenny Camp Sent: Thursday, June 20, 2013 12:42 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - RE: some computers slow Could be the system indexing or scanning for viruses. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jim Belisle Sent: Thursday, June 20, 2013 12:32 PM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - some computers slow Here is the problem. We are using the newest version of 9.5 and we are running a compiled application. Each computer is set up so when starting the application, it looks at a timestamp file to see if I have made any changes to the application. If there have been changes, the code uploads the updates and then the session starts. The actual database is on the server. On some computers when opening forms or running reports, the session is super slow. At the same time, other computers can open the same form or run the same report and it is very quick. Most computers are running Windows 7 but some still run XP. Some computers are 64 bit and some 32 bit. Neither of the above seems to make a difference. If fact one of the 64 bit win 7 machines is the slowest. Can you folks give me some ideas as to what I should look for on the particular machines to care for the speed issues?
