Banner 7.x -- slow....
Banner 7.x was rolled into production over Labor Day weekend. Performance was not an issue during testing, but is currently very poor in production.
A slight performance increase can be achieved by upgrading the java interface (jinitiator) from version 1.3.1.13 to 1.3.1.21. After upgrading to the new jinitiator, the shortcut on your desktop needs to change also.

For fis: https://inb.ous.edu/forms90/f90servlet?config=fis_wou_prd_13121
ETS at OSU (that is where Banner is located) is adding a third server. This will lighten the load on the other two servers which are currently being pushed to their limit. The third server will be added September 24, 2005 at 6:00a.m. I am hopeful that this will significantly increase performance.
