[cvsnt] 2.5.04 (3055) seems to be slower than CVSNT 2.5.03 2382

[Sean Bertinotti]

Hi Arthur,

Thank you that seems to have improved it on my 2.5.04 test machine, but 
it still seems slower than 2.5.03 running on my production machine. If I 
get a chance I will do a trace on the server. Thank you once again for 
all your help.

Regards,
Sean Bertinotti
