My advice would be to talk to the users to find which processes
are unbearably slow, or if there are many, which are the most
important to resolve as well.

Then work from there.  Trace an isolated session, find out where
it is spending it's time, fix the problem, or learn to live with it if
too expensive to fix and move on to the next one.

No silver bullets...
