Performance of Microsoft Commerce Server-based Programs May Degrade Over Time (Q316430)

• Microsoft Windows versions 2000 , 2000 SP1 , 2000 SP2 , Professional

• Microsoft Windows versions 2000 , 2000 SP1 , 2000 SP2 , Server

• Microsoft Windows versions 2000 , 2000 SP1 , 2000 SP2 , Advanced Server

SYMPTOMS

When you use programs that are based on Microsoft Commerce Server 2000, you may experience degraded performance over a period of time.

CAUSE

This behavior may occur because the Commerce Server-based program re-creates Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) connections instead of re-using cached information. This results in multiple open connections that use additional system resources, which, in turn, causes degraded performance.

RESOLUTION

A supported fix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem described in this article and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. This fix may receive additional testing at a later time, to further ensure product quality. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Windows 2000 service pack that contains this fix.
