Sitefinity 5.1 - Administration, extremely slow, pages not rendering style
Hi,
As per the title, I am experiencing extremely poor performance on a development laptop running a fresh installation of Sitefinity 5.1.
The laptop is configured as follows:
Windows 7 Ultimate X64 (64 bit)
4GB Ram
Dual-Core T7800 CPU
320GB HDD
MSSQL Server 2008 R2 Developer Edition
Visual Studio 2010 Premium + MSDN
I have no problem running other ASP.NET sites, bespoke sites I have built or any 3rd party Web Apps and performance is more than adequate however when trying to run a Sitefinity site locally through IIS (via the Sitefinity Project Manager) the performance is below par.
When I am able to get to the Dashboard, trying to access the Administration screen is a painful experience, either I will get a timeout or the Administration > Basics screen will load but without any styling whatsoever i.e. it appears broken.
I have checked the usual places, Task Manager has no indication of any issues, CPU is sitting idle and I can't see any errors in the logs.
This is becoming a serious hindrance for development as I am unable to develop and test locally before deploying any/all changes the clients server (a hosted account, a Sitefinity recommended partner site).
The site runs fine on the hosted server however for obvious reasons I don't want to "Trial-an-Error" my development work (in this case I am creating a bespoke theme and constructing the site).
Any ideas?
Okay this has got pretty bad now.
Always good to have a moan, I may have found the issue, always the bleeding obvious that is missed.
Hey Tahir,
Have you had any luck with finding a way to run both AVG and sitefinity 5.1?
I just updated to 5.1 and have the same issue.
Thanks,
Andrew
FYI, updating AVG from 2012 to 2013 fixed the issues I was experiencing with the admin pages timing out.
