Thanks anyway!
I am humored by the predicament I find myself in. I appreciate the honesty.
I am using MR4 MP1 and find it hard to believe that 10.1 ran so well, yet 11 doesn't.
Our situation can't be unique, especially in these economic times when the purchase of hardware isn't as easy as it used to be (Googling the issue certainly found some emotional folks on the CPU % issue!). Besides, we have more than met the required minimums. This box is running NOTHING but SEPM 11. Very weird.
-----------------------------
NOT weird. SEP is costing us a ton of CPU on servers and workstations. The servers, TWO of them, managing only 300 users, having 3 gig RAM each, PEG at 100% CPU every so often, it appears when running LU.
I find folks complaining they will be typing in Word and it will take 20 seconds for their typing to show. A Task manager report shows that SEP is doing some funky LU processes and it's pegging the CPU, taking a lot of CPU cycles. This happens every so often on the computers. LU is a huge resource hog. And I don't get that! THe clients should be doing LU to the SEM servers and it should go FAST. SAV 10.xx hardly even burped when it got its updates.
Bottom line, LU processes seem to really task the CPU and take RAM. I can show it, I hit Ctrl-Alt-Del, task list, and show running process and sort by either memory or CPU and in almost each case, I find the LU processes at the top of the list on a slow computer. Sometimes it takes a restart to solve it.
