Logging far too slow since using remote clients

I started to deploy my test from my local Computer to virtual machines. Locally, all worked fine. But on the virtual machine, nothing seemed to happen in TestExecute. I installed TC there to see wh...

    Got that beast.

     

    The Project contains a Performance Counter on my local PC. I use it to track TC's Memory shedding.

    So, when I use my Project elsewhere, TC tries to read my local pc's TC private Bytes, which it can't.

    TC then waits for the timeout, which is at 31s, and then continues without any error Information.

    This is done on every usage of the Log object, making Automation useless.

     

    This is a Bug.

did some more Investigation using a Project Suite in shared mode (TC 11). The Project files are located on a Network share, the loggiong is done locally.

 

Here is my test program:

怀

Sub Test3

Dim Ix

For Ix = 1 to 6

log.Message "Msg " & Ix

Next

End Sub

 

 

Running this on my local machine, I get the attached log - on local machine.

So, between log msg 1 and 2, there are some seconds delay time (why is this?), but from there on, everything runs fast.

 

Running on a virtual Client, it looks like  the attached log - on virtual Client.

Between each log item, there is a 30s delay, which makes this pretty unusable.

 

Again, I suspect that the latest Win7 update could Play a role here?

Does anybody use shared mode?

Can anybody reproduce?
