Give it some time. I am sticking with WUG for now, but I see some great things in WUP. WUP can easily integrate with other systems with less programming or with less parsing since information can be taken directly from a "standard" database. What would help the program is lower overhead. I really think the programmers at WUP should look at "Rebol" to speed things up.

I use WUP on an XP machine. Using MSDE for the moment. Once I tweaked
the
program so that my SNMP log file wasn't huge and that gathering
statistics
was unchecked the program runs very well. I have over 4000 nodes that I
monitor. If you are using MSDE the first thing to check is the size of
the
MDB file. If it is over 1.5 gig there might be some polling going on
that
you may be unaware of. I use both the console and web interface.

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.

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.
