No perf counters specifically yet - just CPU and RAM. New 2008 TS Farm. Issue happens on TS server and workstations with the client installed. Working on trace now and will get to sysinternals tools tomorrow. Running the GP application on the SQL server runs at a speed I'd expect (no pausing to log on). Servers have two quad core CPUs, 24 GB of memory (terminal server and SQL server) on gig backbone.

Is this a new TS farm, or an existing one? Is this a .NET app? Got a network trace? What happens if you login to the console & run the application? Have you used sysinternals tools to see if the app is having troubles access registry keys, file system, etc…? What happens if you run the application from a desktop, same thing or snappy load/run times? Scott Kaufman Lead Network Analyst ITT ESI, Inc.

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.
