Indeed, it is geared a bit more twoards WAN situations, though I've seen some cases where it's helped some applications within LAN scenario's as well.=20 Honestly, I couldn't say wether it will do you much good w/ autocad. As I looked back over your original post I noticed that you mentioned that this only occurs with larger drawings. Perhaps, the answer may lie more in the memory / paging area. How much memory is the application using for large drawings VS smaller drawings.=20 You said your memory is at 2GB on this server. What's your page file set too? Is it staticly set, or trying to grow as needed?=20 Do you experience the slow redraw when looking at a large drawing from the console?
