If it makes a difference, it bounces. &nbsp;Meaning it maxs for about 8 seconds, then over 5 seconds comes down to about 11% or less, then goes right back up to max for about 8 seconds. &nbsp; &nbsp;Looking at the line graph, it looks VERY regular. &nbsp;(see screenclip attached)<br />

I would not be too surprised if things are out of date on the server. &nbsp;It is not taken care of very well at all. <br />
<br />
This is something that happened before months back, and went away on its own eventually. &nbsp; <br />
<br />
Sounds like there is nothing I can do in the short term to perhaps help? &nbsp; Just updating the server, which I would have to do on off hours, when downtime would be OK -- right?<br />

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
