Symptoms

Assume that you create a SQL Server Integration Services project package by using SQL Server Data Tools in Visual Studio 2015. When you set the value of the AutoAdjustBufferSize property to True, the buffer size is not set correctly when the data flow engine handles blob data. Therefore, the package may run more slowly than expected.
