Just a note because I am wondering how many other organizations are using Riverbed devices and have had problems with Windchill. Here is a brief history of what happened:
1) Started with Windchill 9.1 M040 and RiOS 6.5.3b. Clients at the remote sites had frequent performance issues; the browser would appear to hang between submitting the request and getting the response. Closing the application and restarting would show that the transaction had completed.
2) Disabled Parse and Prefetch in the configuration settings for the Windchill server resolved the performance issue.
3) After updating the RiOS to 7.0.3a Parse and Prefetch were enabled with no performance issues.
4) Upgrading to Windchill 10.1 M020 again caused issues with Parse and Prefetch. It has again been disabled, and Riverbed is being contacted to see what information they have about this issue.
Is anyone else also experiencing such issues?
