meeting planner slow
I didn't find much help when googling this. I found articles that others have the problem but didn't find a solution. Maybe there isn't one... Exchange 2003 SP2 4500 mailboxes across 5 servers Public folders on 6th server All servers in same data center Outlook 2003 takes a long time to populate the meeting planner info. I know they can disable the meeting details in meeting planner, but the administrative assistants prefer to see the details. Would it help if I replicated free/busy to each server? I prefer to have only one location for public folders to make recovery easier.

RE: meeting planner slow
Since all the Exchange servers are in the same physical location replicating the Public Folder Free/Busy data to an additional server in that same site would not increase the performance from the Outlook client. I am guessing your administrative client is not in the same site as the servers in this case.

Peter, The administrative assistants are in the same site as the Exchange servers - same building. We've done performance analysis on the client PCs, the Exchange servers and the network and nothing looks amiss.

RE: meeting planner slow
I would start by re-running EXBPA to verify there are no known issues reported by that tool. Then I would capture detailed performance counters from the Exchange servers. If your client is seeing a delay then the MSExchangeIS\RPC Average Latency value would be too high. From there you have to work back to determine which component is causing that delay. More often than not, in Exchange 2003, this is caused by a disk or memory bottleneck. Since 2003 has a hard limit on how much RAM it can utilize, you often have to increase the disk system performance by modifying the RAID configuration and/or adding additional drive spindles to increase Disk Read performance. You may have something different specific to your environment but I would guess that 9 out of 10 times I have heard of this problem Disk performance was the cause. Hope that helps.
