Performance Issues

I wanted to make everyone aware of a post over at AskPerf about some high impact performance issues. Below you can find a excerpt from their post. Please visit AskPerf for the entire post.

High Impact Issue: Servers may become unresponsive due to multiple issues

Hi all. Today I would like to bring to your attention an issue we have been seeing lately that very well may effect those of you in a corporate environment. McAfee has recently released information about this issue on their web site.

The issue is that one or multiple servers may become unresponsive or start failing in any of their installed roles. Some of the possible symptoms are:

  • · Slow file access
  • · Slow read/writes from an application
  • · Server unresponsive/hangs
  • · Slow SQL Server performance
  • · IIS Hangs
  • · Inability to connect remotely via RDP

Until next time...
