What you are seeing is the typical issue with Java apps.  It takes a long time
to load them over the net.  I believe there are instructions in the Release
Notes about downloading the web client to the actual box and running it as a
standalone aplication rather than through the browser.  This would solve your
problem.  But many folks prefer not to do this so that the client leaves no
footprint on the box you run it on.  Your choice.

Subject:  [NV-L] Slow NetView 6.0 NT Web Performance





We have recently upgraded to NetView 6.0 on NT. The initial performance of
the web client is slow, it takes 1.5 to 2 minutes to bring up the login
screen and another 20 to 40 seconds to log in. Once logged in the
performance seems pretty good.

My question is there any way to increase the initial slowness in bringing up
the NetView web client?

Our current configuration is:

Server:
NCR Dual P2 450Mhz
512M Memory
OS -  NT 4 SP5
NetView v6.0

Client:
Pentium 2 350Mhz
128M Memory
IE 4.0 (I've also used IE 5.0 with the same results)

Thanks,

Mike Mauch
