Thank you Dave, We did shut off all the power saving features of the NIOC. I'll try these other settings. Philip

Also, sometimes the "Green Ethernet" setting allows the NIC to go to sleep so try disabling this as well.

When I looked at the properties of the NIC driver, it said it was connected at 1GB but that probably is what you were pointing out. Question to you though: won't the speedtest.net just test the Internet connection speed rather than the LAN speed? Thanks, Philip ---------- Original Message ---------- From: Ted Roche <tedro...@gmail.com> To: profoxt...@leafe.com Subject: Re: DBFs Server 2012 R2 very slow with Certain Processors Date: Fri, 3 Jul 2020 15:07:17 -0400 Phil: 1. Can you confirm the local machine's network is actually running at full speed? Just because the driver thinks it's connected at 1Gbps doesn't mean it isn't rejecting 90% of packets. Try https://speedtest.net on this and another machine on the network to ensure there's not some blockage at the networking level. 2. Is it possible to (temporarily) move a set of DBFs locally to the machine, and see if the app runs okay with local data? This will determine if it is the local machine (bad CPU, bad RAM, something-something-local) or if the problem is the network or the server. In my experience, there's often a configuration problem on a new machine that needs adjustment. The machine's logs would show this. 3. Ensure the new machine is up to date in Windows updates and also drivers supplied by the vendor -- an amazing number of machines ship with software that doesn't work until it's updated.
