SharePoint 2010 User Profile Import Performance Optimization

  • Article

After reading SharePoint blog What’s new in the User Profile Service Application, I have recommended one of my customer to patch the environment to DEC CU 2011. Now the user profile full import takes less than 6 hours to import 25,000 Users. Its simply awesome!

Just highlight few Information from the blog:

As a result of these improvements there has been a dramatic reduction of the time required to import user information into SharePoint. For example, inside of Microsoft on the RTM version of SharePoint Server 2010 with 100,000 users our profile import duration for full sychronization commonly required 2 weeks to complete and 2-3 days to support an incremental synchronization. This same scenario on SharePoint Server 2010 with the December 2011 Cumulative Update has been reduced to 120-140 hours for a full synchronization and 6 hours for an incremental synchronization.

If you’re experience delays in importing users and properties or are just looking to improve the security, reliability, and performance of your SharePoint 2010 environment we recommend installing the latest Cumulative Update or Service Pack.

If anyone facing slowness with User profile import, please follow the recommendation Smile

Cheers!
