we are facing problems with a very varying client performance in DataStage 8.0.1 (AIX) and Clients running on Windows Vista.
Opening or closing a transformer or just renaming a link can take up to more than a minute - while in other cases it just performs normal (within some seconds). This also happens when exiting a transformer with the "Cancel" option.
Some interactions work fine and the next is running very slow.
the client machines have 4 GB of RAM and are only used for development.
Nobody is downloading big files etc. - monitoring the net does not show any peaks.
