From: montura on 20 Oct 2009 13:06 That is a problem with government computers too. I traced the problem to Anti-Virus, which is triggered scan every file as it is read or written. So as the SAS System starts up, the entire thing is scanned for virus. That takes three to five minutes, every single morning.
