Would help if the problem was due to a lot of file based i/o.
Have you done any performance tuning of the OS, the maps, the Event Server?

I've tuned the .ini file and noticed improved results. The maps are all scheduled for a tune when we go to 8.0.1.
How do I tune the OS and the Event Server? We have some issues with I/O. Specifically, the archive map in CMGR takes for ever to archive. Files get back up by 1.5 hours.
Also, here are the fragmentaion results for our dev and prod:
DEV - 2% Total fragmentation, 4% File fragmentation
PROD - 16% Total fragmentation, 33% File fragmentation
Our average disk read and write was taking over 0.1 second.

One way to tune Windows is to make sure your virtual memory is a fixed size file, about 2 to 3 X physical RAM, and on a different drive than the OS, and on a fast drive(s)(RAID).
Event Server tuning is done via the .ini file and via the IFC Max concurrent map instances, and map's init pending high an low. Don't use the global setting for this and keep the values low. H = 100 to 200 and low = 50 to 125

When we started working with the tool we had a lot (more than acceptable) of disk read & write issues. We put the box on a maint schedule. Once a week Windows performs a disk clean up. Once a month a defrag is performed. Resolved 99.9% of issues.
Haven't noticed a performance increase.
I haven't noticed it as much lately but there was a time when the system seemed to perform slower if the compound services were started and at the same time there were a lot of trigger events sitting on the server.

Yes, you were accumulating pending maps.
