Subject:	TFS and PB 11.2 performance issues

We are attempting to integrate a PB 11.2 application with Team Foundation 
Server Version Control but are encountering major performance issues. Our 
environment is as follows:

PB 11.2 build 8739

MS Team Foundation Server 2008   Located remotely  - No TFS Proxy

Our application has 19 PBL's and approximately 4000 objects.

When using MS Team Explorer to get latest (for the entire application) 
performance is less than 2 minutes - Very Acceptable

If we attempt to do the same in PB ( even just a Refresh Status - Perform 
Diff on status Update is turned OFF) it takes over 10 minutes - Not 
Acceptable.

Although this is a major issue the BIGGEST issue for us is when in the PB 
IDE and you attempt to expand  a PBL by clicking on a node in the SysTree. 
PB does a Refresh Status which takes upwards of a minute or more depending 
on the items in the PBL to complete. During this time the developer cannot 
check out an object to work with.

We currently have  SCCMaxArray set to 250.  We did some experimenting with 
this (we tried different values between 5 and 5000  with 5 performing the 
worst and 5000 not much better than 250)

Any suggestions, explanations or even just verification that this is expect 
performance would be appreciated.
