Actually, 2421 msec sounds pretty good for a WMI probe. The response time is 
the total time from the time InterMapper sends off the probe until the time it 
completes.

The WMI probes are command-line probes, and they need to make an RPC-style 
connection to the target machine, execute the WMI query, etc. This is much 
slower than the UDP-based SNMP probes.
