WAGS: Other jobs running at the same time now that weren't running before taking machine cycles? Change in priority of your job? Can you monitor the Task Manager for the server while your job is running to see what else might be going on?

The data for this report is pulled from a number of SQL-Server database tables. This report is automatically generated nightly on a server with these specs - MS Window Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition SP2 2.50 Ghz 12 GB Ram About a month ago, I noticed that the "run time" for generating this report went from 8 minutes to 20 minutes. Everything works fine, except that the run time has more than doubled. I can also run this same report on a stand-alone PC with these specs - Windows XP SP3 2.50 Ghz 3.25 GB Ram When the same report is generated on this PC, the job runs for about 8 minutes. Over the weekend, when nothing else was running, I conducted a number of tests to confirm what I was seeing. The results were consistent. The generation of this report takes more than twice as long on the Server as compared to the PC. I am very puzzled and not sure where to look. I don't know why the run times went up dramatically on the Server. I don't understand why the run times vary between the two boxes. Any insights or advice would be most appreciated.
