I've inherited some code which uses Exchange Web Services to synchronize data between an Exchange server and our system.
I'm currently trying to troubleshoot a problem where the code generates a huge amount of transaction log data (200GB over a couple of days).
Now, I'm pretty new to Exchange, but one thing I've noticed, which surprises me, is that some 20MB of transaction log files are generated even when I run our program in read-only mode (so it calls GetItem
, FindItem
, GetFolder
and FindFolder
, but create/update/delete calls are stubbed out.)
How come? what does Exchange need transaction logs for when reading data?
