SYMPTOMS

After you change a security role or after you import a customization file in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0, you experience timeouts or slow performance on the computer that is running Microsoft SQL Server. (The Microsoft Dynamics CRM databases are installed on this computer.) You may notice high CPU usage and high memory usage. This problem occurs until the role change operation is complete or until the import process is completed.

Notes
  • Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0 updates the privileges for new custom entities after you import a customization file.
  • If you have more than several hundred business units set up in Microsoft Dynamics CRM, the role change operation may take several hours.
  • Typically, this problem occurs if the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0 database contains more than 50 business units.
