Is anyone else experiencing performance issues with the new 20080614 build?  Since installing yesterday, we see excessive queuing on the SMTP gateway server running ME/MS.  The server simply can't keep up with the inbound mail as it always had.  I removed 20080614 and returned to 20080404 and the server is keeping up just fine as usual.

Any thoughts?

Server specs:
Windows 2003 Server SP2 - IIS SMTP
ME 12 - 20080508
MS 10 - 20080614 / 20080404
Quad Xeon 2.33
2GB RAM

Thanks, --Jeff

Hi Jeff

One thought that comes to mind is debug logging. Can you check if debug mode was enabled when MSEC build 20080614 was installed?

(More information on enabling/disabling debug logging can be found here: http://kbase.gfi.com/showarticle.asp?id=KBID002874)

Hi Jeff

Further to the above, we ran some tests on the same setup that you described above but we did not notice any performance deterioration.

Can I suggest you contact Technical Support about the matter so that we can look into the problem in more detail?

I tend to disable the debug logging unless I need it to save resources, so that didn't seem to play into the issue.  I think it was a coincidence that we were getting slammed with the latest round of intense spam around the time I did the upgrade.  Things have slowed down to normal pace again, and the latest versions of ME/MS are performing well as expected.

Thanks for the thoughts and help.
--Jeff
