GP10 on server load faster than on client PC

Posted on by 930

Hi friends, I've been reading a lot about GP load time on workstation, and in my case exist a huge difference between the time consumed to load GP Client on the server (few seconds) and load GP Client on a workstation (near of 3 minutes!)... as a resume I can tell you: right now the antivirus is disabled, all reports, OLE and dictionaries are local on each computer (not using shared resources), is a local area network at 100Mbps and is a small office, I mean, all computers and the server are close (near), Metrics on homepage are disabled, alerts are reduced, etc

Do you have any idea what to verify or config to reduce the among of time required to load GP on workstation?

thanks in advance

    Are you logging on to GP on the server as the 'SA' and on the workstation as a normal user? I had a problem similar to this and it had to do with security. When you log into GP as the 'SA' or any user who is setup as a power user then the scripts related to security that normally run on startup are skipped. There are a lot of scripts and they can take some time to run. In my case the difference in time was about 1 minute, so not as drastic as what you are seeing. After reindexing/reorganizing the security related tables in the DYNAMICS db I was able to cut the difference in half.

    Hope that helps.

    1.  How much RAM is on your workstations?

    2.  Make sure SQL Logging is not turned on at the workstations.
