SharePoint 2010 extremely slow browsing Libraries

12. August 2010

Because I just couldn't wait to play with the latest stuff and I had a reason to reinstall our SharePoint server [bathroom that floods is above the server room!], I went ahead and installed SharePoint 2010.  I read that it requires 8 GB of ram and a quad core - they weren't kidding. It takes a huge amount of resources but the biggest issue I've had is I couldn't browse the libraries via explorer. It was so slow that it was really unusable. My work box I'm running Windows 2008R2 [just like the SharePoint Server] and a quad Xeon but I've noticed the same issue with Windows 7.

The fix: Internet Options - connections - LAN Settings - disable the Automatically detect settings.

Why does that work? I have no idea but it did the trick.

SQL 2008 - Can't save changes to table

25. February 2009

One change they have made to SQL 2008 was really bugging me. If you would change a table in the SQL Server Management, you would get an error message:

Error
Click for larger view

That is frustrating so I took to searching for a fix.

Click on Tools - Options - and on the Designers node, you will find a check box "Prevent saving changes that require table re-creation"

Options

After that, you should be able to make all of the changes you wish.
