I'm currently thinking that most of the issues are seen on Citrix Metaframe Presentation Servers, after they've had the following CTX hotfixes installed: PSE400W2K3R04 PSE400R04W2K3001 PSE400R04W2K3002 PSE400R04W2K3007 PSE400R04W2K3011 PSE400R04W2K3039 - It's still confusing, as it seems to affect around 80% of such servers, whilst the remaining 20% carry on just fine. The issue also seems to affect some servers when a lower hotfix level has been applied. For the moment, I'm going to concentrate on the Citrix angle, and put the other miscellaneous servers (SQL or Exchange) to one side and consider them likely to be a separate issue with similar symptoms. I'm currently re-investigating the CPU and memory optimization features in case I missed something previously. -- AdamT "At times one remains faithful to a cause only because its opponents do not cease to be insipid." - Nietzsche -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
