Hi, Wesley - Thank you very much for all of your links.
I had come across the comments from Buck Hodges but it sounds like the final remedy was deleting everything in TfsBuild. Do they mean actually truncating the TfsBuild database? Sounds a bit aggressive. What would be the outcome of doing that if it got us over the hump? We wouldn't have any build definitions available and all of the historical build information would be gone?
