All, we upgraded to FR3 SP4 on Metaframe xpe yesterday after experiencing some severe farm stability issues (xml service/ima service crashing). The FR3 SP4 upgrades seems to have fixed that, but now applicaitons are extremely slow to launch from WI. Across all applications for workstations local to the servers or remote sites the conneciton time is 45-60 seconds (time from clicking icon to application launch). Any ideas? thanks, Mike Bollman
