I keep hearing people say WUP is slow on their systems.  Mine is running
pretty fast but I have a lot more monitoring I want to add and based on
these emails, I'm not sure it will handle it.

Can some of you send more details on the performance?  Server specs,
number of devices and what monitoring you are doing.

I just wanted to add (maybe totally unrelated), that I've decided
AGAINST moving to WUP because of the "fatness" of the application.  It
seems WAY more clunky, hard to operate, and doesn't load as fast (most
important) than WUG.    It's REALLY slow on my Win2000 system.   Very
sad to see this from Ipswitch.   I'm sticking to WUG, it's lean and mean
and works well, don't know why WUP was craeated to have more bells and
whistles yet be more of a drag on the system and slower.   Bad upgrade,
IMHO.

Actually you will see significant slowdowns with XP-SP2. This is not a
problem with WUP. The slowdown is because of changes to the TCP stack
made
by Microsoft. I have attached a web page(from Microsoft) that vaguely
describes one aspect of the problem.

Basically WUP will work just fine on XP-SP2. It just runs significantly
slower in some circumstances.

Hi,

After applying SP1, response time went way down. It became so bad, the
product was unusable.
I erased and reinstalled it without SP1, and things went back to normal.
It is currently running on a pc with XP-SP2. Do you know of any
compatability issues?
We have a server on order. When it arrives, I'll try WUP on that.

Magnus, Maillist,

I'm also experiencing lack of speed in WUP. Connecting trough MSTSC to
my 
Windows hosts, WUP application is extremely slow. Network runs smooth, 
MSTSC also does. Simply WUP runs at snail pace. NmService.exe
permanantly 
uses 50%+ CPU ressources on a dual 1.4GHz Sun LX50 with 1GB Ram
Win2kSrv. 
MSDE Database on same host.

So, my host is adequate H/W, isn't it?

Are there others experiencing this? I'd be pleased to get some feedback
on 
this.
