Feels unlikely to be paging issues then. Always useful to cross items off the list :-). Does the app make any calls across to authentication or database systems where the connection might have timed out overnight and need to be re-established? Does any connection go via a firewall or router that might have silently dropped a TCP mapping from its cache and hence the TCP connection would have to go through its retransmission timeout (NAT routers are beggars for this, but I doubt you're in that environment)? Is the server's DNS or other name resolution well-configured such that it won't encounter pauses resolving network names for resources on other machines? Is its DNS server well-configured so that it doesn't encounter delays resolving names for resources? Just random thoughts, I know, but they've tripped me up at other installations so I offer them for shooting down! - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
