True. Actually we don't use any UDF function in our database.

Thanks. Actually I'm really lost on this one. I know the OAT/OIT can
cause this sort of performance problem, but what puzzles me is that
only on this server this happens. Other servers with the same OAT/OIT
difference don't suffer so much (and they have about 3 times the
number of clients of this one).

May the HT is the one causing this problem?
