Server Admin very slow, rotating status thing spins forever

Whenver I log into the Server Admin on my 10.4 server either locally or remotely, it is very slow. When the machine was first installed it was quite quick.
Now, I am trying to edit log settings for domains and it takes 5 minutes to stop turning each time.
There is no status indicator, and no error message (which is unfortunately currently typical of Apples server admin programs).
What can I do to start diagnosing the problem? Has anyone had this before?

This is fairly common I believe. What OS version are you running on the server?
I've had problem with this, especially under 10.4.2 and 10.4.3. In 10.4.5 this works better.
I might also be the result of the servermgrd bug that 10.4.4 was ment so solve.
Check if servermgrd is taking a lot och cpu. If that is the case, try the following command: killall -HUP servermgrd (probably needs sudo as well)
I'm hoping Apple will solve this soon. Here is a workaround, but I prefer a real fix: http://www.aaronadams.net/index.php/2005/10/10/reignin_an_out_of_control_servermgrdpr

Which is the main causes to server slow down???.....How to solve this problem????

The first message seems to indicate that a connection was made on the socket but closed prematurely. I get this often on my Tomcat installation when our corporate virus scanners kick in, probing network ports. I wouldn't worry about that one.
The second one is indicating a deadlock on your database. I would say that your problem lies there.

If you're running Webcenter Spaces, this will be very slownly with this configuration.
I have the same configuration plus 2gb of swap. If I start space my machine running very slow too.

My Atv2 is very slow movies and shows take forever to load it plays for a few minutes then pauses again. I thought if was a problem with my wireless router but I replaced it with a new airport extreme and the problem persists. Air play is just as slow.

My Atv2 is very slow with both AirPlay and rented and purchased content I spoke to apple rep and tried the things he suggested but the problem persists. Now it requires more lead time then the lenght of material being viewed. I haves broadband internet connection and airport extreme router so I don't think this should be a problem. Lately every time the unit goes to the screen saver an error message come up saying there was an error while loading content please try again later and you have to all over again. It is extremely frustrating. Any suggestions? What speed of transfer should I expect using AirPlay ?

I'm having the same issue. Ay fixes? Bought ATV today, music streams but videos don't and mirroring doesn't work either. Start mirror and severe lag then just drops. Been trying for couple hours. About ready to return it.

Itunes is very slow to load and takes forever to recognize iphone

My itunes has been running VERY slow. It takes several minutes to open, then it is unuseable for another several minutes. Here it can browse my library but my iphone doesn't show up. after this it takes five to ten minutes to recognize the iphone. it was working yesterday when I updated my iphone to 4.3.5, then suddenly this happened.
Any clues? I installed the most up to date version and it has the same symptoms and eventually says iTunes was unable to load data class information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later

I was able to get my iTunes functional again after disabling a lot of my windows services -- use this thread for your reference:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2292?viewlocale=en_US
I haven't pinpointed exactly which service(s) were causing the iTunes slowdown, as I haven't had time to test re-enabling all of them yet. But so far I've just disabled the services that I know I don't need anymore and iTunes has been running like a champ =)

How do I use Firebug with a website I created? I want to see how long each thing takes to load on the page. The server is very slow.

I have created a website/blog with Wordpress. It appears to be on a slow server because it can't be opened or takes forever to open. A representative from Wordpress told me to download Firebug to find out how long each thing takes to load on the page. I downloaded Firebug but I can't figure out how to use it. Please advise.

OK. You've kind of skipped over the reason why you want to go back five hours, but my assumption would be that you've made changes to a Pages file that you want to revert.
There are two ways to tackle this. From Pages itself, open the current version of your document, and from the File menu, click Revert To, and Browse All Versions. You'll then be in the Time Machine interface for that file, and can browse back to the version you want.
Or, outside of Pages, you can select the file (or the folder it was originally in, if you've since deleted it) and enter Time Machine from the TM menu (it sounds like you've already tried this?)

Sometimes can't log into server or very slow to do so.green bar at bottom is fully lit and just sits there with wheel spinning like it is trying to hook up?

Does not happen all the time. Many time works no problems. When having problems seems to be that way for a while not just one email. Just did an email and wheel was spinning and trying to send. "Can't log on to server" I believe is what comes up. Hit cancel, went into sent file to see if went thru(sometimes it does when it says it didn't send) Not in sent file, started new email and redid it and it sent fine???
Have been told looks like thunderbird issue and not Provider?
My sent file is small. Thought this might be contributing so deleted most of old that I did not move in to client folders.

If it doesn't work at one time, but does again work later, it's unlikely the problem is with Thunderbird.
You may try to disable email scanning in your anti-virus software.

Flash player terminal server Nomachine very slow firefox 3.0.3

Hello all,
I have a serious problem which i cannot reolve by myself.
When using firefox 3.0.3 and flash 9.0.124 and 10 in a
terminal server environment with bandwidth limit to 320k firefox is
slowing down because of the limit in bandwidth.
The terminal server software caps the bandwidth usage because
we run an controlled internet environment for our business safety
and there are more then 3000 users logged in so the bandwith should
be capped for performance reasons.
When i play a flash movie from youtube or visiting sites like
http://www.derbauer.de then the
terminal server software just tels the software that it cannot
process that much bandwidth so the application slows down.
Now i have off course multiple options:
1 disabling flash (not very nice to users)
2 raise the limit (less users in our environment or more
costs for extra hardware)
3 asking Nomachine to drop frames are do something fancy with
it.
4 make an option in the flash plugin to say play this video
with only 1 frame per second
The last isn't very nice for people either but flash
applications still work only viewing flash video's is not as good
as people want.
What are your thoughts on this?
With kind regards
William van de Velde

EDIT: Oh, and you have very little free RAM and lots of Page Outs. So, in fact, first thing to do is to simply restart and only have FF open and test.
First thing to do is to start FF in Safe Mode and see how it's working. This will temporarily disable all Add-ons and use a clean Profile. If it's running OK there, then it's time to look at your Add-ons to find a culprit, or start with a new clean Profile.
Hold down the Option (alt) key when opening FF.
You should also get rid of the steam clean thing. Those cleaning programs, if that's what this thing is, are dangerous and not needed.

Windows Server 2012 very slow performance executing files

Hello,
I am running windows server 2012 as dc with 2 clients connected running win7 pro x64, this is a new setup.
Whenever i try to open a large file from the client or an application from the client it takes forever to startup or to load. The performance monitor indicates a maximum workload of 15% at all times.
I have tried all the following potential solutions i found, however none of them seem to do the trick.

Hi,
You could disable SMBv3 on server 2012 to check if the issue related to SMB protocol.

Modifying InDesign file that is on server is very slow

I have a user that is having issues modifying InDesign files that are on network storage. There are other users that do not have any issues, users on the same network no more than a cubicle or two away.
The issue is that the program becomes to slow to use. When the user opens a file on network storage even trying to modify a line of text in a text box brings the whole program to a complete stop and it takes about a minute to recognize that you are editing the selected box. highlighting text is not even possible as it is so slow.
I have been having the user copy the file to there desktop from the server then save back when done (I think its more reliable this way anyways..) but they are curious as to why everyone else can work from the server and they cant.
Any advice anyone?
PS: User is using a Windows laptop, core i5 4GB RAM and InDesign CS6

The ethernet connection is 100 mbps due to cisco phones. I have not tired a different user yet I will have to try that out.
The 100mbps connection shouldn't matter though IMO as the file is like a 15MB file. If it were a gig I would understand but we are talking a small file that should be loaded into cache upon opening anyways correct?
