Front Page Web Operating Very Slow

[Eddie Grimaldi]

Hello All,

I hope this is the correct group to post this issue. I am experiencing a
strange occurrence with one front page web on a server that has multiple
webs. Here is my situation. I'm running Windows 2000 Server SP2 on a
beautiful Compaq server with plenty of horse power (dual 2 gig processors, 6
GB RAM etc). There were 3 existing webs in IIS on the Server that all work
great.

Normally, when I open a web, open pages and save pages, the response time is
very fast (and still is) on the 3 existing webs. A page usually saves to
the server in about 2-3 seconds. However, with this new web that I
established (identical configuration I believe), the web can take up to 2
minutes to actually open in my Front Page client, pages can take up to 60
seconds to open and up to 2 minutes to save changes. These symptoms only
exist on this last web I've created.

Here is what I've done so far. I've tested all 4 webs on multiple client
machines using both FrontPage 2000 and FrontPage 98. Same results. The
first three work and responded very quickly and the 4rth responds extremely
slow. I've changed IP address on the 4rth web, created a new home
directory, recalculated FP extensions, removed and reinstalled FP
extensions, deleted and recreated the web itself and given it a variety of
different names.

Nothing.

The only observation I come up with is that if I want another web on this
server, it is going to respond as slow as I've described earlier. I know
this makes no sense because I have other servers with 40 and 50 webs that
all work fine.

Any ideas and assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Please reply to the group if possible.

Thanks again,

Eddie

Do you have a "dynamic" element in the web like a TOC or Search that is processing all the pages for changes each time?
