We are running 2008 with HP t5740 Win 7 machines over gigabit in the office. It is not only slow logging in, it is excrutiatingly slow throughout the entire day. We constantly get programs "Not Responding" whiteouts and long file save times or just plain lock ups for 30 - 60 seconds at a time. Outlook search is very slow, and intermittent, as well.
When I connect remotely from my house it is extremely fast. I have a very large Excel file with lots of calculations which takes anywhere from 25 - 45 seconds to open at the office but opens in 10 seconds at the house.
During these lockups and "Not Responding" times the server is only showing minimal CPU usage, 15% - 30%.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
