Question about this. On the server, disk defragmentation is a scheduled task weekly. (I guess that's the default setting? I don't remember turning it on.) Should I run it more frequently?

Weekly is usually good enough. I would check the clients next. That's one good thing about SSDs. They don't need to be defragmented. They are also very fast.

I'm going to try the db ping like you said and probably had more memory also. Thanks so much for your help!

Did the task manager show high RAM usage? You're welcome smile
