NG SmartDashBoard slow loading?

[Sicherheit.co.uk]

I have a customer who has 5 enforcement points logging back to a single management server, they have multiple policies stored (probably >100). The management server doesn't appear to be under stress either in it's job monitoring the FW's or when loading a policy when asked by SmartDashBoard.

When initially loading SDB it takes around 5 minutes to get from the password authentication screen to the policy being displayed, has anyone seen this issue and know of a fix?

Not sure if it will fix it but having over 100 policies to load when it start will take some time. I would have the go through and weed out some of the policies that they don't need. Although they arn't having a problem pushing a policy now, I can see it happening in the future.

Are the policies able to be moved to a storage area not seen by the server but able to be put back if required?

[Lackie]

No they can't be. Is there a need for them to have that many policies?

[Sicherheit.co.uk]

It's primarily to allow roll back to particular dates and times, this is necessary, but it would be acceptable to have them in another location and they could be moved back if required, but they cannot be deleted.

Smart Map is usualy the cause of this. Do they have a lot of objects to go with the large number of ploicies?

Yes, lots of objects. However SmartMap is off, does this make a difference?
