I upgraded to v9 and it seems to take a very long time for the Universal Device Poller to open. Reminds me of the days when Map Maker would take forever if you had a lot of devices. This issue did not occur during beta testing. Here's what I'm monitoring:
Not only does it seem to take a very long time to open, but the progress bar doesn't really work either. I get one bar for several minutes then bang it opens.
Same here.... strange
Could it be related to the number of custom pollers i have?

We're taking a look at the start-up time and slowness that folks have seen now. There was a late change we made between RC and release that may be the source of these problems.
When we have more information or need any additional information, we'll let you know. If you haven't already, you may want to open support tickets so you will be informed when any fixes are available.

It shouldn't be related to the number of custom pollers you have, but just to make sure, how many custom pollers are we talking about? (We'll verify in our testing that showing that many pollers in the UI won't cause a problem).
How can you tell how many total custom pollers you have defined?
Is there a fix for this as yet?
With 4000+ nodes, it takes approx 13-14 minutes to open UnDP for us on our production Network (without any custom pollers at this stage).
We have a second SLX implementation with only a few hundred nodes (our test/dev environment) and it only takes 5-10 seconds - so I do think it's related to the number of nodes.

I should also add, once loaded it's using approx 175meg of memory...
I have opened case #51583 for this.
We're working on some performance improvements to the UnDP. We couldn't get them in for SP1, but they will be in the next service pack.
Great - thanks Casey. While a pain, at least it's something we can live with for the time being.
Chalk me up as a user who's UnDP takes what seems like 15 minutes to load. Then once it loads, it is beyond sluggish. I'll click on somehting, go take a smoke break, and when I come back, MAYBE my click has finally been processed. UnDP seems like a great idea, but if SW cant spped it up, I may have to jump back to 8.5.1. We have WAAAAAAAY too many custom pollers to manage.
Will these improvements include fixing it so that pollers that are applied to 1500+ interfaces actually collect data?

Have you opened a support ticket for this? I haven't seen another user report this problem. Working through support will be our best chance to resolve your issue.
or you might try SP2 which has just been released and addresses some UnDP issues.
