>>I see the smiley. I got the information from your statement "But, because that robot is doing so, this causes some memory problem and such because it eats the entire CPU and it does a lot of transactions.".

>>32GB and 16 processors tells me there is something else that is amiss.
>>Maybe there is some 'constant' error processing being done by the OS. I'd say more of a chance of this if the RAM is of the ECC type. Do they use a RAID array?... if yes, possibly error processing from there too.
>>Do ALL devices appear 'normal' in the Device Manager?... no yellow or red marks on icons?

>When I mentioned they are doing a lot of work from that robot on our tables, I meant A LOT. I do not know if you remember the movie Dump & Dumper. In that movie, when Jim Carrey is expressing his feelings to the girl, he says the expression that he cares about her "A LOT" as if that would be the end of the world. :) Well, lets say it's about the same thing here. The amount of work they are doing with that robot against our table is amazing, but huge. And, all that happens like hundred times per hour and when it does it works intensively at every loop to decompress those files, extract them, and do a lot of SQL and writes on about 25 tables. It's just that I cannot have that running on the same box as my Web application.

Even so, something still doesn't sound right.

It seems that the robot is getting top processing priority all the time. There must be some way to set the processing priorities according to what is needed.

Can you clarify one thing... how many of the processors are running very high? Assuming only your web app and the robot, I would expect a maximum of 4, plus maybe 1 or 2 for the OS.

What OS are they running?
