Luigi,

Please see my response inline.

From: "Luigi D. Sandon" <cp at sandon.it>

Anyway, it looks like the I/O is your bottleneck. If the AV is not the 
problem (did you tried to disable it completely?), check your disk system:

1) What kind of controller are you using (PATA, SATA, SCSI)?

SCSCI (RAID 5) 

2) What kind of disks (ATA, SATA, SCSI) and disks speed?

SCSI 15k rpm (3x36 Gb RAID5) 

3) What disk cache and type are you using (system, controller, write 
back, write through). To use a more aggressive caching however an UPS is 
required.

Currently we're using system. The system guys ordered memory for Write Back today.

4) Is Windows set for "file sharing" or "application server"?

"background services" => File server 

5) Are CVS repository and temp directories set on the same disks? Moving 
the temp folder to another disk may help to reduce head "trashing".

Not on the same logical drive (temp is on c:, repository on d:)

6) Is the network bandwidth enough to handle all requests?

100 Mbits Switched 

Regards,
Stéphane
