We have recently been receiving comments about, and indeed have noticed
that, the performance of our Blackboard server is not brillient, in fact
its awful at times e.g. 5 minutes to login.
We are using version 5.5.1 level 1 at present (and note we are about to
consider the move to version 6).
As this is the first year we have had a large number of users using the
VLE, we are obviously keen to ensure that our server configuration is
adequate.
We would be interested to learn therefore what server specification /
configuration you have, number of concurrent users, memory, etc.
Have you done anything to improve the performance of your setup compared
to the state of things "out of the box"?
Did you notice similar performance issues at your institution anjd what
steps did you take to overcome these problems and was this successful.
I look forward to all responses and will try and report back to the list
in due course.
TIA
Gary
