We use Risk+ as a risk simulation tool. We have discovered that it works
approximately 20 times SLOWER in MSP 2007 than MSP 2003. Has anyone else run
into this problem. If so, is there a remedy?
From: Rob Schneider on
My hunch this not a generic issue, but surely best that you consult with
the Risk+ people on this.

We use Risk+ quite frequently in P2003, P2007 and P2010. There is no
appreciable difference in performance between the patforms.

Might you have files accessed externally from a shared server? We did find
network latency to be a problem on Master Projects stored out on the servers.

I have tried on several instances with seveal machines and several files a
consistent and significant performance problem with P2007. For example, I
have a small file with only 153 tasks and it takes 20 minutes to run 1000
samples. I have found that other people have had similar performance
problems with P2007.

I run the simulation on a file stored on my desktop (local), so network
latency is not an issue.

Any other thoughts? Thanks - Tom

I'd be curious to hear what the Risk+ people say on this?
