I used to support the hardware at another company where I used to work and I noticed the same thing. I would suggest that you make sure you have at least 100 Mbit Ethernet, if not Gigabit. It may or may not help, but it sure isn't going to hurt!
Also, load up the server with as much RAM as you can and of course the biggest, baddest CPU you can find!

Hi Everyone, We are moving to MS Dynamics Great Plains, version 10. We go live in a few months. What I see is that the Great Plains client is slooooow on remote desktops and via the Terminal Servers. The client goes non-responsive for a minute, then finally the user can log on, select the company, and go about his business. Once in the client performance, while not blazing, is acceptable. Closing the client is pretty quick. The terminal servers are loaded with memory and CPUs and there is barely a performance change when the GP client loads. On the GP SQL 2005 server, same thing. I've been looking at performance stats all day and except for the occasional CPU spike, nothing is going on. I'm guessing the is a SQL issue? Any suggestions? I have other SQL 2005 apps on other servers and don't see this sort of slow client issue.
