| Hi all,
Many thanks for your replies. You are correct memory is not the real
issue. It could be that we have i/o bottleneck elsewhere.
According to the performance monitor our average disk queue length is
at max most of the time. I have no idea what this means. Could
someone please explain the significance, if any, of this performance
counter.
Thanks
Paul.
