Drill down slow: app

All processes have slowed to a crawl - 1 user running a
simple query in ARC brings all app's residing on this
machine to a crawl. Machine resourses are abundant and
available. I know these are VERY sparse details... I'll
provide whatever info I can if someone can let us know
something. ThanxThis is a multi-part message in MIME format.

Some suggestions:
1. Run DBCC OPENTRAN for your database. See what SPID has the longest
running txn. Run DBCC INPUTBUFFER on the SPID.
2. Run sp_lock and see who is putting up the most locks.
3. Based on the above, consider killing the offending SPID.

ALL application are affected. Task Mgr show both 933
processors at 100 capacity. All seem fine until we run a
simple SQL query on an ARC database. THAT qry soaks up
100% RAM.

and post the output.
Also there is a SQL bug on SQL2K that will create mem leaks when jumping
between DBs in a query, is that happening? What version of SQL and SP are
you on?

you can search KB for it(if they acknowledge it). The client apps where
made in PB and a SQL2K(Compaq) server gold release. We no longer see this
problem and are on SP3a/SP2. It was a sporatic and not a serious outage at
the time, it sounded familar to is problem though.

I am building a Pocket PC app against an Oracle back end using .NET Compact
Framework and Oracle's sync technology (this includes Oracle Lite on the
Pocket PC). The presentation layer needs to also work for SQL Server CE. So
I'm trying to make the GUI code generic. To do this I need to confirm how
the logins work for SQL CE to SQL Server synchronization. I've tried setting
up a test scenario but failed to be able to authenticate. I don't have the
time to continue trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong, at this point I
just need to know whether the below authentication scheme works. The BOL's
seem to suggest it will work, but they seem a bit unclear. Since I wasn't
able to get it to work, I'm in a state of uncertainty.
My question (about SQL CE to SQL Server sync):
I want each user to be forced to authenticate with a user name and password
before any synchronization takes place. Can this be accomplished by setting
up a Windows account for each user and configuring the virtual directory in
IIS to use those accounts to authenticate?
I'm hoping this will work, because it mirrors what I'm doing with my Oracle
app.
Thanks very much in advance,
Hank
Yes, it will work. Use basic authentication on your virtual directory, and
create an NT group that contains the users. Then add this group the pal for
your publication.
When you are connecting to the URL make sure you pass the password and
account.
