Hi,

If there really has been no change to the server, then I guess it has hit some limit that means some data is no longer cached as effectively.

I suggest running the performance monitor on your machine and look for bottlenecks on the system... Does it appear to be busy? But dont just look at CPU - look at disk usage and memory...

Doing this would be even more effective if you'd run baseline monitoring a few months ago to find out how your server performs normally - then you could easily spot differences in the way its running now...

Off my soap box...

Cheers,
Tim.
