~}It's taken me almost a month, generated about 1GB in logs, and
probably
~}took almost 60hrs.  I've correlated almost all the "hangs" on my main
~}server to which applications were running and how (CPU, RAM) the
~}applications were running.  What I found is something we all knew:
~}Internet Explorer and Lotus Notes are two big apps.  Each app has gone
~}above 250% CPU.  If I read this corrrectly, it means that they were
~}taking
~}up the resources of 2.5 CPUs of my quad processor server.  That's a
lot
~}of
~}processing.  They have also taken over 1GB in RAM, at times.    These
~}are
~}per instance metrics.  In other words, a when the CPU or RAM spiked,
it
~}was
~}in a single session.  Someone else could have been using the same apps
~}with
~}minimal performance hit to the server.
~}
~}I've also learned that when you tell perfmon to monitor ALL threads,
~}prepare yourself for a lot of work.  Huge files, tons of entries...You
~}wouldn't believe what my screen looked like.  There were so many lines
~}on
~}the screen that it took about 3 seconds to refresh every time I
deleted
~}an
~}item from the graph.
~}
~}My next step is to convince mgmt to let me upgrade to IE6 and Notes
~}6..maybe even Windows 2003.

What's keeping you from getting more from your terminal servers? Did you
know, in most cases, CPU Utilization IS NOT the single biggest constraint to
scaling up?! Get this free white paper to understand the real constraints &
how to overcome them. SAVE MONEY by scaling-up rather than buying more
servers. http://www.rtosoft.com/Enter.asp?ID=147
