Forgive me on the lack of specifics but I am not a "server" guy.

We just rolled our code out to a 2003 Server from Win2k Server and for some
reason our pages are painfully slow. It appears the pages process fine (by
spinning globe and 100% status bar. But then there is a dead wait time while
it must be processing the request.redirect.

Server 2003
IIS 6.0
Framework 1.1.4322.573
Windows Authentication (Was using local users/groups on Win2k, now using AD
accounts but trying to duplicate old user/group behavior)

The system does work 100%, Authentication and group identification as well.
Just a painfull wait time before pages.

Everything worked beautifully on the new server for a short time. Not sure
what changed.

I hope this provides some insight, more detail will happily be provided
where necessary.

TIA

all calls or just the first?
do you have the app pool expiring too soon?
is the worker process in the task manager pegged really high?
 
Look in the event log for excessive asp_net service entries, which may
indicate excessive restarts, which will cause the server to appear slow.
 
After looking at the Event Log I actually found the problem. As part of our
normal error handling and tracking we write to a custom Event Log category.
That was not happening on the server and when we removed it from our
authentication/roles code it runs fine.

I will try to figure out what was happening but I am good with the Slow to
Process page issue.

Thanks for your help
