I have looked at Performance Monitor and everything seems to be running
within "norms" which is why I am a little baffled at the perceived
performance.

The page file is 2GB on the system drive.

It is Windows 2000 Standard.

While increasing the CACHE file size will help, have you looked at
Performance Monitor to see if there is a bottle neck somewhere on the
server?

How is the page file set?

Is this Advanced Server, and if so, have you set the large memory switch
in
the boot.ini?
