Extremely slow client view

Hello all!
I'm being able to observe the client I've set up. But the speed at which my view as server is refreshed is so slow that I can't possibly monitor what is being done on the client computer. Just to load the desktop took about 5 minutes.
Both computers are under the same ISP with 10Mbit lines but still, monitoring my bandwidth usage, I never download faster than 5k/sec. Is it a bandwidth issue? Is there any setting I can put in order to make this run faster? There's no point in using ARD if I can't see what goes on on the client computer...
Thank you for any suggestion!
Z

I just installed the 3.2.2 update and it runs much faster. I noticed that now my bandwidth throughput reaches 20k/sec, which means it was originally ARD limiting it. Unfortunately it's still not enough to effectively monitor and operate the client computer.
Anyone know of a way to solve this issue?
Cheers!

Changing database location per Table at runtime is extremely slow in viewer

We are using the Crystal Reports 2008sp2 Viewer in windows forms .NET
application to display various reports based on a Pervasive database. The
C# code dynamically changes the database table locations at run time. The
location needs to be set for each table since the location may be different
for each table in the report.
We have tried to methods to change the location.
1) Set the Table.Location property in the ReportDocument.Database.Tables
collection.
foreach (Table table in rd.Database.Tables)
Table.Location = "New Path";
2) Set the TableLogOnInfo properties.
      TableLogOnInfo logonInfo = new TableLogOnInfo();
      logonInfo = table.LogOnInfo;
      logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = dataPath;
      logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.LogonProperties[0] = new NameValuePair2("Data
File", dataPath);
      logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.LogonProperties[0] = new NameValuePair2("Data
File Search Path", path);
      table.ApplyLogOnInfo(logonInfo);
Both of these methods work, but have extremely slow performance. Both
methods take between 2 and 3 seconds to execute per table. Since many of
our reports have 20 - 30 table references ( sometimes more ), this can add
an additional 1-2 minutes to the display of a report.
It seems that the Crystal viewer object is doing some sort of verification
every time the database location is changed. We have noted that as the
location is changed, the database is being accessed by the viewer. Please
advise as to how to stop this behavior. Is there a way to set the location
without the viewer verifying the change?
This problem is turning reports that run in the 2008 Report Designer in 3 seconds into reports that take
many minutes to run. We will hear nothing but screaming from our 300 customers.
Thanks for any help.

Hello,
I have a very similar issue but with Crystal XI and XI R2.
I'm using Oracle 10g, and changing a couple of properties using the following sequence for each table to change the login information and the table's current view (each view is a portion of the overall table):
IDatabaseTablePtr table = tables->GetItem(tableN);
table->SetLogOnInfo(TheApp.GetDataSource(), TheApp.GetDatabase(), userID, pwd);
char tableLocation[201];
char tempTable[201], newTable[201];
strcpy(tableLocation, table->GetLocation());
// make new table name, put into newTable
table->PutLocation(newTable);
if (!table->TestConnectivity())
ShowCrystalRE_Error(job);
Stepping through in my debugger, the SetLogOnInfo seems very quick, it's the PutLocation( ) that seems to be taking alot of time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is extremely fast on SQL Server, only noticeably slow on Oracle.

Enterprise manager extremely slow to view

We have 2 servers in an oracle cluster and since we do not have grid control we are using the traditional OEM with that (should mention we are 10gr2) and then I have a standalone server with the digital gui. I am trying to compare my tablespace sizes and paradigms but it takes about 5 or more minutes (sometimes almost 10) to get any information. Is it normal to have slow down to this point? Is there something I can do? The digital gui is on the server and the traditional oem is on my desktop.

SSRS 2008 R2 is extremely slow. The query runs in less than a second in the dataset designer but if you try to view the report it takes over 10 minutes. I have read this is a bug in SSRS 2008 R2. We installed the most recent patches and service packs.

Hi Kim Sharp,
According to your description that when you view the report it is extremely slow in SSRS 2008 R2 but it is very fast when execute the query in dataset designer, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can‘t reproduce the issue. Obviously, it is the performance issue, rendering performance can be affected by a combination of factors that include hardware, number of concurrent users accessing reports, the amount
of data in a report, design of the report, and output format. If you have parameters in your report which contains many values in the list, the bad performance as you mentioned is an known issue on 2008 R2 and already have the hotfix:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2276203
Any issue after applying the update, I recommend you that submit a feedback at https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/
If you don’t have, you can do some action to improve the performance when designing the report. Because how you create and update reports affects how fast the report renders.
Actually, the Report Server ExecutionLog2 view contains reports performance data. You could make use of below query to see where the report processing time is being spent:
After you determine whether the delay time is in data retrieval, report processing, or report rendering:
use ReportServer
SELECT TOP 10 ReportPath,parameters,
TimeDataRetrieval + TimeProcessing + TimeRendering as [total time],
TimeDataRetrieval, TimeProcessing, TimeRendering,
ByteCount, [RowCount],Source, AdditionalInfo
FROM ExecutionLog2
ORDER BY Timestart DESC
Use below methods to help troubleshoot issues according to the above query result :

Videos are extremely slow when trying to view them

Here is the situation. I have been posting course material for over a year now, and everything had been working fine. Over the last week, any video that I try to view from our iTunes U site is taking at least 5 minutes to play, when I double click on the video I get the loading bar, the videos that are less than 30 minutes long take between 5 - 8 minutes to play, the ones that are over 30 minutes take between 10 - 15 minutes to play. This had never happened before, and the weird thing is that I can go to any other iTunes U site and view videos that are two hours long and it takes less than a minute to play. So I know its not my network bandwidth or I wouldn't be able to view other sites. I use an iMac with a 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB of Ram, bought specifically for iTunes U administration. I don't know what else to do. Any help or advice will be truly appreciated.

I have also found our iTunes U site extremely slow for the past few weeks. It also took a long, long time to log into Admin. But at least for us, there has been a noticeable change (for the better) in the last few days.

SetTableLocation EXTREMELY SLOW IN ORACLE


Hi I am using the code below to change my database provider at runtime. 
Unfortunately this line <code>ReportDocument.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.SetTableLocation</code> is extremely slow trying to change table location in Oracle. It takes 2 or more seconds per table so it is unacceptable for us.
Please I need a solution as soon as possible. 
It is weird, becaus with SqlServer it works fine! so I don't understand what's the problem with CrystalReports and Oracle. 
Ther is anyone who have a solution? 
We are using: CrystalReports 12, Oracle 10, 11. 
Thank you very much.

I have a very similar issue using Crystal XI, and now more recently XI R2 updated through SP6.
My database connections for the report utilize ODBC, which is how our application talks to the database, and provides a connection to crystal.
Oracle version is 10g R2, patched on client with 10.3.
I have a common databaes, in which I have views on many tables. The views depict a collection, and when the report is to run on a different collection I need to change the views on all of the tables (including those in subreports), as well as provide the credentials for connection.
I'm using VStudio2008 C++ with PutLocation( )
First using GetLocation() to find the initial location, then PutLocation to change it
using
IDatabaseTablePtr table;
try {
 strcpy(tableLocation, table->GetLocation());
// make my changes to the table's location (the view)
 table->PutLocation(tableLocation);
catch (_com_error& e) {
// if problems, handle and display errors.
HandleError(NULL, e);
I can have upwards of 20 tables/views in a report, and this can take 1/2 to a full minute to accomplish.
In addition, I optionally provide a user the ability to add criteria and sorting to the report; and perform a table/column collection to show them to the user for seleciton. This same process is used on all views (including those in subreports), so proper data lists can be provided from the correct views.
Does anyone have a solution for this?

If I see the appliction log in event viewer then I see the following errors on the Bonjour service.

I did all the step with save mode and that didn't gave the same result.
Then I created a new account and there itunes started up normally.
So I contued with the user section.
I removed the itunes directory from
c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
This gave the same result in not starting up.
Then I removed the itunes directory from
c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
The a popup appears that the Bonjour Service has been disabled.
I looked in services and saw that is was still running.
But I tried to restart this service and it took a long time to stop this service.
Even if I selected restart the Bonjour Service didn't start.
Manually starting was not a problem.
Clicking OK on the popup let itunes start quickly. And closing and starting it again was also quickly.
So Matt thanks for your answer.
If it happens again I have to see if it was the removing of the itunes directory from roaming or restarting the Bonjour Service.

Webdav EXTREMELY slow, now trying to connect directly to a WFE bypassing F5 using UNC

We are having problems with Explorer mode being VERY slow in multiple SP farms, (2010 & 2013), and are trying to get to the root of the problem.
We are trying to map a UNC path out directly to a server using something like \\servername\sitecollection\site\library and we can't get it to work. Can anyone tell me how to do that? I know I've done this way back in the past (2007) and assume
that it should still work in 2010 and 2013.
Failing that, can anyone offer any suggestions on things to look for with Explorer Mode being extremely slow? We are getting like 1.15kbs download speeds in EM, where if we just download a document from the site via a Standard View it works just fine.
We've been googling like crazy and having come up with anything so we thought we'd try to take the F5 out of the picture.
We've had several conversations with the networking team, which they claim that they are not throttling webdav in any way, and we can't figure out anything else that would allow webdav to get through, but just be VERY slow.
Thanks.
Ted

Up front, WebDAV connections are slow. To diagnose issues with WebDAV, you would need to introduce packet sniffing on the client and server (using Network Monitor 3.4 is an option).
The Web Application must respond to the name you're trying to map. For example, if the Web Application had an Alternate Access Mapping and IIS Site Binding of "servername", then you could use it. If not, you can't. Generally you do not use server names in
AAMs or IIS Site Bindings.

Slow report viewer/rdlc performance in local mode with Single Sign On

Hi Team,
We have recently enabled Single Sign On to our application and after that our rdlc reports loading got extremely slow.
Please find the below configuration that we are using.
1. Report Viewer 11.0.0.0
2. running rdlc file in local mode (not using Report Server)
3. System.IdentityModel.Services 4.0.0.0
The query behind the reports is returning result in 5-10 sec but report is taking 1-4 min to load (sometimes getting timeout) (as per the complexity of the report).
We have tried a lot of workaound but nothing worked.
i saw performance improvement in reports by addding <trust legacyCasModel = "True" level="Full" /> in config file, But using this we are getting "Dynamic operations can only be performed in homogenous AppDomain" error
in many pages of our application.
Without SSO reports are running completely fine.
We are stucked here and not able to proceed. Is there any issue with the SSO and rdlc in local mode ? Is there any hot fix available for the same ?
Please help !!!
Regards,
Pranav Sharma

DSL is running extremely slow during peak hours from 12 afternoon to 12 midnight. Lower than 50% of rated speed and high latency
I have been frustrated with this DSL Service for months now. I am considering contacting BBB to file a complaint and I am tired of dealing with customer service giving me the run around. Internet is a monopoly in my area therefore verizon feels it doesn't have to do anything to keep its customers when they provide crappy service. I am on waitlist for another internet service provider and it is going to take almost a year because of how bad the internet options are in the area and demand for better options. I even had to pay over 100 dollars to get a truck roll come to my house to fix any issues within the house and the internet has not gotten better. Atleast I feel I should get a refund or something.
Here is my speedtest result just now. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2899553407

Here is what ICSI Netalyzer Results have stated.
Network Access Link Properties + –
Network performance (?): Latency: 580 ms, Loss: 15.5% –
The round-trip time (RTT) between your computer and our server is 580 ms, which is somewhat high. This may be due to a variety of factors, including distance between your computer and our server, a slow network link, or other network traffic.
We recorded a packet loss of 16%. This loss is very significant and will lead to serious performance problems. It could be due either to very high load on our servers due to a large number of visitors, or problems in your network. Of the packet loss, at least 14.0% of the packets appear to have been lost on the path from your computer to our servers.
TCP connection setup latency (?): 720ms –
The time it takes for your computer to set up a TCP connection with our server is 720 ms, which is quite high. This may be due to a variety of factors, including a significant distance between your computer and our server, a particularly slow or poor network link, or problems in your network.
Background measurement of network health (?): 3 transient outages, longest: 0.8 seconds –
During most of Netalyzr's execution, the client continuously measures the state of the network in the background, looking for short outages. During testing, the client observed 3 such outages. The longest outage lasted for 0.8 seconds. This suggests a general problem with the network where connectivity is intermittent. This loss might also cause some of Netalyzr's other tests to produce incorrect results.
Network bandwidth (?): Upload 700 Kbit/s, Download 2.3 Mbit/s +
Network buffer measurements (?): Uplink 5400 ms, Downlink 1200 ms –
We estimate your uplink as having 5400 ms of buffering. This is quite high, and you may experience substantial disruption to your network performance when performing interactive tasks such as web-surfing while simultaneously conducting large uploads. With such a buffer, real-time applications such as games or audio chat can work quite poorly when conducting large uploads at the same time.

There are several possible explanations for this behavior. The most likely cause is that the ISP is attempting to profit from customer's typos by presenting advertisements in response to bad requests, but it could also be due to an error or misconfiguration in the DNS server.
The big problem with this behavior is that it can potentially break any network application which relies on DNS properly returning an error when a name does not exist.

While still on Mavericks my Macbook Pro 13 mid 2010 (2.4 Intel core 2 duo) sporadically began running extremely slow functions, even the mouse cursor moved in jolts and steps, to type a word in google search engine I had to wait a few seconds after being typed for the word to appear on screen. The internal speaker volume responds 10 seconds after tapping the buttons on the keyboard. Videos are unplayable in netflix and other sites because picture freezes and runs in jolts and steps. Its Not the internet connection or the streaming.
I upgraded to Yosemite to see if this would fix the problem, I upgraded the darned adobe flashplayer believing maybe I needed the latest software available for my programs for the computer to run smoothly. I upgraded the RAM to 8GB from 4GB and did not fix the problem. I have more than half of the 500GB hard drive with free space. I'm getting a Java Runtime Environment download prompt to view properly something every time I boot the computer. The "slowness" comes and goes. But it gets more frequent and worse each day. I can't work. Could it be some type of malware that makes the computer slow? I can't identify a specific malware to address and remove. Could it be that the fan isn't working properly and runs slow when its too hot?? Please HeLP!!

a very good and quite current discussion on the issue is here > Mac slow after Yosemite 10.10.1 up-grade - kernel task? - the best of the best here in the forum weigh in here. - Feliz Navidad - ÇÇÇ

I have a 1st generation time capsule and an extreme b/g. Is the extreme slowing the network down

I have a 1st generation time capsule and an appe extreme b/g. Is the extreme slowing the network down? Should I dump it an get the new n version?

yes it is likely to be slowing down the network because you are using 802.11b/g
from what i recall with b/g a slow client can slow down the entire network to that clients speed.
this was the major improvement with 802.11n and Mimo. each client can be connected to the access point without affecting your speed to the rest of the network
its reccomended to get all new "N" equipment if you have the budget for it. some of those old airports and time capsules can still be worth something on amazon marketplace so you might be able to sell them
if you want to create / join / extend a netwowrk your going to probably need all "n" based equipment.
buy the new 4th generation time capsule or the new 5th generation airport they have better stronger radios
in the mean time configure your base station router to a high multicast rate, so it will prevent devices connecting to it at 1-2 mbps speeds and slowing down your network
if you have an apple care covered mac remember the airport / time capsule rule. all airports and time capsules purchased 2 years before you bought your mac to the 3 years of apple care covers them. if you do not have apple care then the standard warranty applies

Extremely slow wireless printing with HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m

I'm seeing extremely slow print speeds when printing wirelessly from a Mac or a Windows XP system to a new HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer. The printer begins printing immediately when I request a print, but it only prints one line. It will then take about 15 minutes to print the rest of the page, printing each line after a very long pause. Demo page printing doesn't exhibit this problem, only documents from programs like Word 2008, Safari and Firefox (tried firefox on PC and Mac) are affected.
If I connect to the printer through a USB connection it prints fine, so this problem appears to be with wireless printing only.
Printer: HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m
Computer: Mac mini (Late 2009 model) (also tried a Windows XP laptop as a comparison, using latest drivers from HP's website)
OS: Mac OS X 10.6.2 with all available updates installed
Computer connection method: Wired Ethernet connection to wireless router
Printer drivers: version 2.2.1 (Apple supplied, HP drivers never installed as system shipped with 10.6)
Wireless router: Apple TimeCapsule (Early 2009) 1TB, running in a/n and b/g modes on 2.4 and 5GHz. TimeCapsule is in bridging mode as the DSL modem handles DHCP service
Encryption: WPA2 Personal, no MAC filtering or hiding of the SSID.
IP addressing scheme: All addresses are handed out by DHCP server with no reservations of any kind
The TimeCapsule is sitting three inches from the printer and the printer indicates full signal. Connection of the printer to the wireless network and setup of the printer on the Mac went without a hitch. Only when printing a test document did we discover the problem. The wireless network is behaving as expected when accessing the Internet from both Mac and Windows devices (tested with a Dell laptop running XP and a MacBook running OS X 10.6.2), so I don't see any overall problems with the wireless network.
Attempted remedies:
1. Rebooting and powering off, waiting, powering on computer
2. Resetting the print subsystem, turning the printer off and on again and reinstalling the printer
3. Unplugging power from the printer and letting it sit for several minutes before trying to print wirelessly.
None of these worked.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the DSL modem HW. There might be an issue with how print data is being routed though.
Please try the second experiment where you blank-out the default gateway and DNS entries from the printer's internal web configuration page. Open the printer's internal web page by browsing to its IP address. Select Networking and then Wireless (802.11). Under the IPv4 Configuration tab, select Manual IP:
For Manual IP Address, use the existing printer IP address.
For Manual Subnet Mask, use 255.255.255.0
For Manual Default Gateway, leave blank. This is important.
Select Manual DNS Server:
Leave both the Manual Preferred DNS Server and Manual Alternate DNS Server fields empty. This is important.
Press Apply.
Turn off the DSL modem, the printer and all computers connected to your network. Wait 60 seconds then turn on the DSL modem and then turn on the printer. Then turn on the computers. See if this corrects the printing speed.

Initial Time Machine Backup - Extremely Slow/Freeze

Hello,
I recently switched my external HDDs and began utilizing a different HDD in conjunction with Time Machine. I have used this HDD in the past with Time Machine and never had a problem. The initial backup is proceeding at an extremely slow rate and often freezes - as of writing, it is currently standing at 125.3MB of 1.07TB - About 1,172 days. I have erased and reformatted the drive (Mac OS Extended (Journaled)), tested data transfer rates to it by transferring files myself (normal rate), repaired permissions, verified my disks, tried the initial backup while spotlight was off and have forced a spotlight re-index, allowing it to go to completion before attemtping a backup - however, no solution has thus far worked. I have not made any large changes to my computer since I switched the HDDs either.
Does anybody know what could be causing such a problem and how to fix this? Many thanks for any help,
- Cptbigt
