MIgration IIS5 to IIS6 (Win2003) : Slow performance of cla..

Hi,

I hope someone has an idea about the problem I'm experiencing.

We moved an ASP (classic asp, no .net) Web application from our old
server (WIN2000, IIS5) to a new server (Win2003, IIS6) with superior
hardware.

Much to our surprise, the asp application loads a lot slower than on
the IIS5server, with inferiour hardware ???

Does anyone have an idea about possible default setting differences with

IIS6 ?

The application does NOT run in isolation mode on IIS6.

The slowdown in loading is general, even in simple asp pages with pure
asp code (no components).

I have picked up something about ppl. who talked about setting
response.buffer to true ? Any opinions on this ?

Thanks
Tom

Hmm,

let's add something

The webappplication is using a SQL database (SQL 2005 64bit)

Now on the old server it used SQLOLEDB as provider for the connections

We took this over to the new server.

As of today I changed the provider to SQLNCLI (native client) and saw
improvement in speed and response of the server.

Does anyone has any ideas about the reason for this ?

Thanks

Tom
