        Do you have it set to "not wait for printers before launching
app"?
        I find this can make some users crawl...

Make sure you have all the post SP4 hotfixes installed including the GDI
Thread fix.

Greetings all,

Running Citrix XP FR 3 on a Windows 2000 server SP4. Under 10 users,
machine is dual 1 Ghz CPU and 1 gig RAM. We are using Macola Exact
software for ERP. Some users when launching the application through
Program Neighborhood will have the dialogue box "Applying Personal
Settings" displayed anywhere from 10 minutes to half an hour before the
application opens, while for other users the application opens right up.
There seems to be no pattern as to which user it happens to and when.
The server memory usage is always far below capacity but CPU usage does
peg in the 90's a fair bit, usually hung on one process but necessarily
when on one of the application launch hang-ups.

I'm not sure where to be looking, am pretty confident the server has
enough horse power. Is there an easy way for me to determine which
Citrix patches/hotfixes are installed so I can see if there are updates
I should be applying?

Would appreciate any and all suggestions.

Thanks.
