Info: The server configuration is as follows
Test server 1:
Server chassis: CHENBRO CHASIS Model: RM-41416B
Motherboard: Intel Server board S2600CP4
Processor: Intel XEON E5-2630 V2 (Single CPU)
RAM: 8GB RAM Samsung ECC RDIMM (2 no’s)
RAID controller: LSI MegaRAID 9271-4i SGL SATA+SAS Part No: LSI00328
RAID level: RAID1 and RAID0
RAID card to HDD connector: Mini SAS to 4 SATA CABLE SAS PCI D33289-003 BIZLINK (Intel)
HDD type: SATA (Seagate Constellation ES.3)
Network: 1 Gbps (2 no’s with route add enabled)
Antivirus and firewall: Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.4 (Firewall disabled)
RAID configuration details: Totally 7 HDDs are connected to the server (All are 1TB SATA HDDs). We have configured 3 RAID1 pairs using 6 HDDS (Each RAID1 is equal to 1TB) and 1 HDD as RAID0.
First RAID1 has 4 partitions. One is for OS and other 3 are used for just keeping very less accessed/ less important waste files).
Other 2 RAID1 HDDs have 4 partitions in each and all are shared over LAN. RAID0 HDD has 8 partitions with low level data and it is also shared over LAN.
Test server 2:
IBM System X3630 M4 Rack Server
Processor:Intel Xeon E5-2420 (6 core, 15MB)
RAM: 8GB
HDD: 4x 1TB (RAID 1)
RAID controller card: M5110 RAID
Problem Description:
Initially the test server 2 was my main server and everything was fine, I changed my main server with test server 1 now the problem started like I faced the problem like the clients experienced the interaction with the server is slow and unable to work fast. So I reverted back the changes in order to do the testing and I made the test server 1 as client but now also I faced some issues with working speed of the server. So I decided to do some loop testing which is...
Test suite1:
For i = 0 To TextBox1.Text
For j = 0 To TextBox2.Text
If j = TextBox2.Text Then
Me.Text = j
End If
Next
Next
Result:
Loops Test server 1 Test server 2
(in sec) (in sec)
10000 304.0282 301.2274
10000 259.9276 285.3041
10000 234.016 282.9914
20000 985.8125 1247.3977
20000 944.6284 1142.5796
20000 1033.9074 1245.3892
Test suite 2:
- VB.net
For i = 0 To TextBox1.Text
If i <> TextBox1.Text Then
Me.Text = i
End If
For j = 0 To TextBox2.Text
Next
Next
Result:
- VB.net
Loops Test server 1 Test server 2

Changes done:
- 1. I checked the same with the multiple OS like windows 2008 and 2012 but still the same problem repeated
- 2. Checked without RAID
- 3. Done complete hardware check with the intel
- 4. I also tried by removing the RAID and other extra HDDs. I just ran the server with single HDD (That is OS HDD) and still the problem remained same
The test server 2 was lesser capacity server as per hardware configuration. Still the speed of the test server 1 seems slow when it runs the programme.
Is there anything I left to check and is there any other way to solve this problem?? Please help me...
Thank you in advance..
