RPD initially slow to login

I recently updated Win 2012 essentials to allow RDP into the desktop by updating the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
Create new DWord (32-bit) of DisableTaskOffload and set to 1
Problem is about 80% of the time when I login from my Win 7 computer, there is about 20 - 30 second of complete black on the window before it shows the desktop. Any clue why this is? Also happens when I remote in from an iPad.
Thanks.
Steve

Sorry that was a different registry change someone suggested to speed login but didn't work. Registry was:
Regedit: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Server\RDP
Edit DWORD called EnableServerRemoteDesktop and set it to 1
This allowed me straight to the Windows 2012 R2 Essentials desktop instead of getting the management console.
Basically I'm remoting in from a computer on the same domain. This is a home system so network traffic is minimal and everything on cat-5e cable with gigabit network switches. Computer connecting from is a Windows 8.1 workstation, on the domain.
Also a s a side note, I do not always get the blank screen for 30 seconds, sometimes I get the Blue background with the Welcome word and the little spinner next to it for 30 - 60 seconds. Thoughts?
Thanks.

Apex is too slow to login and run report

Hello Expert,
I am working to fix a problem with APEX is extremely slow to login. It might take 3 to 5 min for the login to show up and it takes forever to load the reports on the screeen that has 1000's of rows. And when it comes to clik on the button to move from tabs in the application, or select a drop down menu, it takes forever.
can any one suggest a solution to this problem? Is anyone experience this at their work environment and what can I do? If I am working on the same application in Development Environment, it is a little bit faster, it dosn't take that long as it takes in production.
Your suggestions is much needed and appreciated.

Without knowing what version of the database & APEX it is kinda hard to even fathom where your issue is...
Are you having issues just getting a user logged in or is it a combination of logging in then running the report?
Have you tried running the query OUTSIDE APEX in TOAD or SQL Developer?
Can you post some information on what the query looks like? Maybe even post a sample of the code on the Hosted Oracle Instance?

Slow Guest Login

I just posted another thread about slow PHD login issues, but this is separate (I think). I have modified the guest accounts on our work computers to include some customizations such as a set of calendar subscriptions, a reduced set on the Dock, and some custom Safari preferences like home page and bookmarks. When I try to log in as a guest, there is a pause at the login screen for somewhere between 30 seconds and 10 minutes. The guest icon looks like it has been pressed, but the screen is unresponsive and does not yet show the login process. Eventually, it successfully logs in.
Is there anything I can do to speed this up? People often think that it isn't working, and try clicking Guest over and over again. And even if you do understand that it is slow, it seems ridiculous that one should have to wait for minutes on end just to log in.
It looks like the total size of the /System/Library/User Template folder is about 280MB - 125MB of ~Library/Application Support, 50B of ~Library/Calendars, and around 80MB of ~/Library/Fonts. Is this what's causing the slowdown? I imagine that I could move some of the fonts (probably from Microsoft Office) to /Library/Fonts, but I don't know how much I could reduce the sizes of the others.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Greg

It looks like the total size of the /System/Library/User Template folder is about 280MB - 125MB of ~Library/Application Support, 50B of ~Library/Calendars, and around 80MB of ~/Library/Fonts. Is this what's causing the slowdown?
Your customized User Template folder is definitely part of the problem, if not all of the problem. The normal size of that is 6.7 MB. Every time one logs into the guest account, the entire contents of User Template is being copied to ~guest. That can take quite a while if you have grown it to 280MB.
Hacking the System Folder is not a good way to customize the guest account. Set the User Template back to the OS X default. Move the fonts and app support files into /Library/Fonts and /Library/Application Support, where they will be accessible to all users. Use Workgroup Manager (part of the Leopard Server Admin Tools free download) to customize the Dock.

Windows 8.1 machine is slow to login on network because of a public folder that it is scanning

I have a problem with windows 8.1 machines taking a long time to login to the network. They are on a Domain and there are mapped drives involved. I have turned off the mapping of the drives one at a time and have found that the problem is the
public folder that has thousands of pictures and audio files on it. If I don't map the public drive the system logs on very fast if I map the public drive the windows machines will take 45 seconds at 800 mbs pull on the ethernet card to scan then the
system works like normal. If you try to login through the wireless system forget it. I have turned off every indexing searching program I can find and cannot get it to stop. None of the windows 7 machines have this problem so it is something
in the new OS that is causing it. Please advise???

Trick will be to find the source of the indexing. Even if Search is shown as indexing the content it may be transitive because some apps is calling say WMI to trigger say Windows Search to perform the index.
Stopping services like Windows Search will generally have some negative side-effect that you won't want to live with.
What is the link speed and latency like between the 8.1 client and the public drive?
Are you able to open a support case?
Suggestions:
Verify that the 8.1 install is fully patched (i.e. has all monthly updates installed starting from the ZDP to February 2014 updates.

My Macbook Pro (Mid 2012) freezes or is slow to login

Hi, so this issue has occured for a while, but my Macbook Pro 13-inch Mid-2012 freezes occasionally on my login screen. A couple of things happen when it does this.
Either it freezes and there is no blinking cursor in the password box and I can't move the trackpad/if I do move the trackpad it just turns into a spinning beach ball for 20 seconds and then it finally allows me to log in. When I log in, for a few minutes everything on my computer is sluggish, for example going to my launchpad takes time and opening up applications takes time.
Or, it will do all of what I just stated above but it is preceded by a sound as if it were booting up from shut down (that mechanical disk sound that always happens right when you press the power button to boot up the computer) and then following this, the screen is brightened a lot and there is a white loading bar at the bottom of the screen towards the middle. The loading bar is like 15 or so transluscent white horizontal lines that become solid white to indicate loading. This may take a few seconds and then it does exactly what I stated in the previous paragraph.
This issue has happened for a while, and I'm not sure what the problem is. Please help! It's frustrationg to have to take 30 or more seconds to wake up my computer and begin using it.
I am running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3 on a Macbook Pro 13-inch (Mid 2012) with 4 GB of RAM and 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 processor.

When I log in, for a few minutes everything on my computer is sluggish, for example going to my launchpad takes time and opening up applications takes time.
User Tip: Why is my computer slow?
What to do when your computer is too slow
Speeding up your Mac
It's frustrationg to have to take 30 or more seconds to wake up my computer and begin using it.
Check your System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items. Get rid of and/or delete all that you do not need or want.
==================
If you found no solutions to your problem(s) listed in the various Knowledge Base Articles see if the following suggestions are of any help:
Except for the keyboard & mouse, disconnect all devices/peripherals from your computer.
Step 1: Restart into Safe Mode by holding down the Shift key during startup. The comp will run a complete & lengthy file system check, then start up w/only the required kernel extensions & w/o running any Startup items that you installed.
If you are running OS 10.4 it will also perform some font finagling.
Try starting up normally again. If you are still stalling, restart in Safe Mode & move on to Step 2...........
Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
Step 2: Open Library>Startup items folder-the *root* level Library, not the one in your user name folder.
Look for potentially problematic 3rd party items such as virus scanning software components, etc. Remove 1 or more items to a location outside the Library folder, such as the Desktop, then restart normally & see if your Mac stalls. It it does, try removing all the items in the Startup items folder & restart. If all’s now well, place the items back into the Startup items folder 1 by 1, restarting each time you put one back. If and/or when the stall resurfaces, you just identified the faulty component.
If the above does not work, then it’s time to move on to Step 3.................
Step 3: WARNING-This step can be tedious-removing .plist files from the /Library/Preferences folder.
Remove the entire Preferences folder from the Library folder on your startup drive then place the files back 1 by 1 until you see the problem return. *The Mac will automatically create a new Preferences folder in the Library folder*
Alternatively, you can take half of the items out (all non-Apple .plist file, for example), restart to see if your Mac stalls, then move to a smaller set of items, repeating the process until the culprit is found.
Or you can use Preferential Treatment which is a *FREE* utility that does all the work for you.
Hang in there & good luck!!!!

Win 7 slow boot - login in with fingerprint reader

Hi
I have a T400s (2.4 GHz and 4 GB) with an Intel SSD and WIn 7 RTM with latest Lenovo beta drivers.
I have the fingerprint reader activated for login and my boot time of 35 seconds is now split about half in the fingerprint login and half in the rest of the boot process.
Or described in another way if the machine is powered off and I swipe my finger to start the machine it takes about 17 seconds before the login prompt (the finger) is shown.
Then the machine shows "waiting" for 15-20 second during which my personal login icon flashes by before it completes the login and almost immediately shows the desktop.
I am surprised by the very slow login with my finger already swiped. It would be much faster to disable the fingerprint reader and log in using a password. Anyone encountered this problem and knows how to fix it?
Other problems with the boot I have found (and solved) is the use of a solid color as the Windows background which for some reason costs about 15 second in boot time!!? I also had to reflash the firmware of my SSD to gain an additional 10 seconds at the start of the boot process.

Thinkpad T400s, X61s, X41, 600

Hi Mats,
I have a similar, if not, the same complaint. I have a T500 running Win 7, which was just upgraded from NT.
My complaint - and it goes under the topic of usabiltiy - is that it takes anywhere from a couple of seconds up to 20 seconds before a valid fingerprint scan is accepted. If it's a scan doesn't match, there's immediate feedback of an error. I wouldn't mind the delay so much if the was some immediate feedback. If I click the "other credentials" button, I can see that the machine is "validating". If I enter my password, boom, I'm immediately logged in.
This is annoying. Under NT, there was not such problem. Your post is from 1 1/2 years ago. It's surprising that no one else is complaining about this. I guess most just say "forget it - I'm just using my password." But I know the process works and works nicely. (I've run the ThinkVantage System Update as recently as Feb '11. So, the drivers are current.)
Hey, anyone from Lenovo listening?!!

Slow network login with DSC

Hi,
I am trying to implement a login feature to our program which will allow different users to have different rights to front panel controls. There is a server in our subnet to which I am trying to login. I have configured the necessary users and groups in the domain account manager in the server. I have also granted access to all machines in the subnet (from the account control tab via properties). The problem is that while the login works (and all the machines in the subnet can see the login server), it is painfully slow. It tooks a little over 5 seconds to login a user via the server. I have tried using the "programmatic login.vi" and the built-in "invoke login dialog.vi". In either case, the login is slow. What is happening in the server (or the "programmatic login.vi") in the login process so that it is so slow?
This is obviously a network problem because I have tested with local domains. A login to a local domain happens fast. When I enter an incorrect password to a network domain, the login prompt quickly tells me that, and there is no delay. However, with a successful login, the login is slow. What could be the cause to this problem?
I am using LabVIEW 8.6.1.
Best regards,
Jarmo

I am 99% sure someone else had 'slow transfer' in another thread.
Sometimes a router needs firmware update to be compatible, or upgrade the cables to cat6e, or look for a new router or switch which helped my own setup. Just look for one that says that it is "Vista compatible" actually.

Slow portal login on Dialog instances

Hello.
We are having issues with our portals in the sense that it is taking users up to two minutes to login to our portal system. The long login times seem to only happen on our "dialog servers", and the central instance logs in fine and fast.
Furthermore, after the users login to the system (either DI or CI), the system runs fast, and performs well,,, it is just the login that is taking a considerable amount of time.
1. The only the portal dialog instances (app servs) are slow.. the central instance is fast when loggin in.
2. This seems to only affect users logging in from the active directory. Users such as "administrator" login fast.
Has anyone experienced this before? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Praveen

Hi Praveen, facing the same situation. I´ve noticed that if the user is involved in any role with R/3 ivies , such as ESS, MSS or PS/PLM roles, the performance is really poor as you say and the behaviour is exactly the one you have described.
Now I´m looking for some strange and hide parameter used in the system definition of my R3 systems inside the portal.... it seems that the portal is checking one by one all the iviews with an external R3 connection before it open....
Please, if you find the solution, help me!!

Slow AFP login

This started as a Lion Server issue but the problem is still present after upgrading to Mountain Lion yesterday. Logins to sharepoints via AFP take about ~30 seconds for authentication. That's 30 secodns after submitting username/password credentials before being presented with a list of sharepoints to choose from. It's the same delay whether selecting the sever from the sidebar or using a URL/IP address in connect to server. Strangly though, this delay only exists for the connections to the server on the LAN. Connections via "VPNing" into the network and then using connect to server with the same IP address do not get any delay at all. Same when enabling a port forward for AFP connections. Only connections from clients on the same subnet as the server are affected. The issue only affects OD accounts. Local accounts on the server always login at normal speeds.
There are multiple external services that authenticate users from this OD server including a Kerio Connect mail server and a wordpress installation to name a few. All do so without any errors or slow downs.
There are no errors in any od/password server/kerberos log I can find to explain the slow down. Using a Bonjour browser confirms on the correct IPv4/6 addresses are being advertised for the AFP service.
Configuration:
ML 10.8.3
OD Master with one remote replica (also experiencing same symptom of fast via VPN and slow on LAN)
Static IP, correct forward and reverse DNS setup (changeip -checkhostname reports success)
DNS is external, not on same server
Only file sharing, caching, time machine and OD are running on the server
Troubleshooting so far:
This server started life as a Lion server and everything was great. Then there was an ISP change. Once the new internet connection was live the server had lots of problems authenticating users for a couple of hours. Then the problems went away by themselves while we were still troubleshooting. Nothing had changed, just suddenly everything was authenticating successfully. But AFP authentication was slow with this 30 second delay.
The server has been archived, demoted to standalone, promoted back to a master and restored. The issue is unchanged. The archive has been restored to another server setup with the same configuration (hostname, network settings, etc) in a test environment and the issue is not present so it's not something contained within the archive.
A strange thing happened after the restore however. A few hours after the restore, the server app would only see local users and groups. Workgroup manager could see the directory users but would not accept the directory admin credentials even though the same password worked on the replica. Using command line tools to reset that password to it's correct value didn't work either. So the server was upgraded to Mountain Lion. After the upgrade the new server app could see all the directory accounts and the admin account password was being accepted by the 10.8 version of workgroup manager.
I'm at a complete loss to understand why the authentication process would have this delay for clients on the LAN vs clients connecting via a VPN connection or port forwarding from the internet. Anyone ever seen anything like this or have any tips on which logs to look at to get further information?

It didn't solve the problem but it did make me think about looking more closely at the clients. I hadn't done that because the issue is affecting all of them equally including my machine which works fine connecting to other servers.
I found some useful entries in the system.log file when one of the client machines was trying trying to authenticate to the server.

This all seems to suggest to me that the computer checks for a kdc realm on the machine that is maintained by Apple. Then it tries OFFICE.EXAMPLE.COM then TPGI.COM.AU. TPG is the ISP at this site and reverse dns lookups of the WAN IP address have tpgi.com.au at the end of them so it looks like the final fall back is that kerberos on the computer is doing a reverse dns of the wan ip and doing a hail mary looking for a kdc.
What's interesting is the one in the middle. The actual realm name is SERVER.OFFICE.EXAMPLE.COM and the server's address is server.office.example.com. The only place that OFFICE.EXAMPLE.COM exists on it's own is in the external DNS (it's an A record for the WAN IP address to allow simple remote connections) and as the search domain in the network DHCP configuration (option 15 to be specific).
Anyone know the process of how a Mountain Lion client identifies realms to look for during afp authentication?

How to avoid system slow when login first time everyday

if login system first time every day, it will be very slow for loading web application.
I think maybe it 's reload cache every night or by a certain perods of time.
how to avoid this situation. or set cache reload a time per week?
Thanks.

Terry,
I would confirm your application pools are set up as suggested in the install documentation. This should resolve your issue.

Help troubleshooting slow user login

for the past week i've been having a problem with slower then normal login to my user account. (the top menu bar loads in slices very slowly)
login in safe mode and to another user account is much faster so i can narrow it to something in my start-up items/extensions.
what's the best way to figure out the problem: should i be disabling the login items in my user account control panel or should i be looking for something in the user/library folder?
btw, i repaired disk permission and deleted cache files using first macjanitor (which seemed to hang so i force quit) but then i followed up with onyx.

Jimyyz,
Most times that I've seen this, the problem was caused by a bad cache file in the main Library folder. Look in /Library/Caches for all cache files associated with this account (most of these will have the account's UID appended to the name: "501," 502," "503," etc.). If you don't know the account's UID, check that user's "properties" in Netinfo Manager.
Good luck!

Slow in Login interface

Every time when i turn on my MBP 2011 after upgrading to Lion, it is very slow when in Login interface.
It costs the computer 1 or 2 seconds to response after i click my logo.
I used to wonder whether should i click or double click the logo.

Same thing for me. I have a MacBook Pro 13" with i7 cpu and 8 Gb RAM. Despite all that boosters my login interface seems to get hours to let me in!! Please help.

Time Machine only old versions when restore, initial slow

I had a problem on my MacBook Pro with OS X Mavericks when installing bad software. It had someting to do with installing myHack (stupid).
My machine started acting crazy so I decided to reinstall the whole thing with a Time Machine backup.
The strange thing was going on. I had two destinations where I made the backup (USB, encrypted and Synology DiskStation).
Both told me before the reinstall that the backups were recent. After booting with OS X Mavericks Recovery System and point to either backup I saw that since my update to 10.8.5, I think, there was no newer version to restore. The newest was from June 24th, I'm not sure when 10.8.5 was released??
So I've lost 4 months of work while I was in the perception that my backups were recent (as Time Machine showed me when working with the system).
Have other people the same trouble as I have, it this an bug issue? I'm gonna check and see with my other Mac computers if they also tell me they have a recent backup and see in a restore procudure if I can use that recent version if I wanted to or that they also show me old dates from version 10.8.4
Is this a bug starting with OS X 10.8.5?
Also the initial backup I'm making on two of my Macs are awfully slow.

Problem initializing ConnectionPool with Login Failed

Hi, we are using weblogic 8.1 on solaris with sybase 12.5, Our application initialize
several connection pools to several sybase databases. We are having problem only
with one of connection pool, we always get "JZ00L: Login failed. Examine the
SQLWarnings chained to this exception for the reason(s)." We are pretty sure the
user id and password is correct, they are all the same as other databases which
we don't have problem. The setting is pretty much the same other than hostName,
port and database name. we even set initialCapacity to 1, it still failed? What
could be the reeason? and how can make weblogic spit out the Syabse specific SQLWarning
which could give us some clue?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,

It turns out there are something in the "Properties" attrib that this Sybase server
didn't like. After we took out most of the them, (only leave the user, sqlinitstr,
applicationname) , then it starts to work.

EMacs running 10.4.4 slow user logins

We have just started integrating our old iMac school lab to include eMacs. The lab runs off a dual G4 server running 10.4.4. The iMacs run 10.3.9 and have a satisfactory login time. The eMacs are running 10.4.4 and when a client logs in the login time is very slow. The screen dims and nothing happens for upwards of two minutes, then login completes. Is there a setting on the client computer that is not telling the computer to search for the server? Is this a known issue? Our primarily pc techs are not much help.

I am having a similar issue. I was running 10.3.9 server and 10.4.x clients and all was well until I moved to 10.4.4 server and then the slow logins started. Occasionally the login doesn't complete at all and I have to force restart the emac.
