IIS6 slow connection from network

Iv'e noticed several posts here and in other forums, none with anything approaching a resolution.

I’m having EXACTLY the same problem. Same ASP application runs lightning fast on IIS 5 (on much slower hardware!!) than when running under IIS 6. This is using the same client, the same network, same wiring, and the same database, all machines in the same domain, no ssl, no authentication required for the application, SQl authentication to the database via ODBC. The database is on the box with IIS 6. I have swapped the cable patching between the IIS 6 box and the IIS 5 one to eliminate cabling issues. Our IIS 6 box (running 2003 server) is also a DC and DNS.

I even put the server and the workstation back to back with a cross-over cable to eliminate any network interference and the result? When running the pages on the workstation it takes 10 second. When running in a browser on the IIS server it is instant. Interestingly, static pages load very quickly, so it sees to be related to how IIS 6 processes ASP requests for network clients

I fail to see how David Wang from MS can suggest that the problem is the network. In my case and also those from Miguel and several other posts, it is clear that there are no network performance problems with IIS5 running the same app against the same database on the same network. In many of these posts, the observatoin is made that when accessing the pages from the server console does not produce the performance delays. The issue is firmly with IIS 6 and how it interacts with the operating system to handle network requests for pages.

I would LOVE to get a resolution as we were comitted to upgrading all our servers to 2003. However, I could not recommend this at present given the apalling performance of IIS 6 and the reliance many of our processe have on using IIS as an application server.

I was having the same problem and I corrected it changing the
response.buffer = false by response.buffer = true.
