7502 - Asset module seems slow

This is difficult to confirm but either HF1 or HF2 seems to have made V7.5 very slow in the asset module. I say difficult as I'm running this on a virtual server that is not the spec of the main box, but asset was never as slow as it is now. When only 2 or 3 items in the list then fine, but when lists are long the pages take an age to display. Also had a couple of crashes with the system around the same time, circumstancial I know but everything points to asset being an issue at present.

Is anyone else experiencing issues in this area, or can support confirm they are working on issues of performance here. Can't afford an upgrade of live with it in this state.

W2K3, With MS SQL 2005 and IE6 and IE7 as clients.
