The performance here is really a concern. When you consider my deployment isn't even considered that large based on what LEM is supposedly capable of and also by what the SolarWinds support folks have told me. However, if I am having problems with searches with my relatively small deployment what should I expect with an even larger deployment?
I get the feeling that there is some significant back-end work that may be needed to improve the searching capabilities.
With that being said, i am still looking into options to improve the disk I/O and latency to see if that makes a difference.
