Two extremesyncservice.exe running (v5)

[morgul]

Hi

I have a setup where I have exact mirror from A->B and A->C. There is one folder (with many subfolders) about 100000 files.

Upon startup A requests file listing from B and C. A then begin to build the file list.

When I was running v4, these went in sequence, and although not very fast, way faster than the 2 running in parallel now. When checking, I found two ExtremeSyncService.exe, one was using 100% cpu, and another not doing anything. The where running under different users, one is the service account (the service that is supposed to do the work, and working at 100%) and one using the logged on account (doing nothing at this time).

Two questions:
1. Is it normal to have two extremesyncservice.exe running? If so, what does the second one do?(the on running under logged on account).
2. Is it possible to speed up the file listing?

Thanks

Yes it is normal to have ExtremeSyncService.exe running twice, or even more often. One of them is the scheduler which should not be using any CPU. Any additional ones are the profile runners. The profile runners can run under the service account if the service launched them first, or under the user account if you manually started a profile.

In terms of running jobs in parallel, nothing has changed since version 4. You can specify whether scheduled jobs should run in parallel on the Scheduler tab sheet by clicking the Tools and Settings button.

To speed up the file listing, please see the fifths FAQ on
