i found it is slow on applying group policy on new pcs join domain after 3rd time restart approximately
and i found always high load on DCs in ping for example the time is 500 ms and if i open dc locally or remotely if i make r.c to press refresh it came after asecond generally not fast !! if i open task manager i found ram is 47 % and cpu 28 %
