The few examples that you mention are all database related (query/stored procedure). Can it be that your connection pool (if used) combined with not closing connections is part of the problem. I can imagine : 1) Maybe you run out of conenctions, because connections are not properly closed. And also the connection pool teminates connections when they are not used for 4 seconds. After 4 seconds the pool can recreate connections again. or 2) Maybe your connection pool has very limited connections. With one or two users this limited number of connections in the pool will suffice. If there are more users, the max. number of connections isn't enough. The pool then has to wait for connections to become fee again. (uhh....I'm not an expert at all, but the above came immediately to my mind) -- Met vriendelijke groet, Martijn Bos +31 6 39477001 (Public pgp-key : http://maboc.nl/pubkey.maboc.asc)
