Create mailbox and settings checking entire environment- delay because of cmdlet Extension agent

Hello,
we have one problem that is uncommon but its slowing our business as we grow.

We are developing exchange hosted on 2013 and process is quite slow, but it is slow because it is "verifying" all the environmental details like which address lists exists. 

example when i run in verbose mode creation of user looks like this and verifying all the GALs and address lists: 

Keep in mind that it is creation of single user only, so its just too much.

So, the question here is- is this possible to avoid?

I see some article about https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd297998%28v=exchg.141%29.aspx disabling cmdlet script agent, so it may be relevant?

Which agent can be related to this checks as we have scenario like this:

PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-CmdletExtensionAgent | Format-Table Name, Enabled, Priority

Name                                                                            Enabled                                    Priority
----                                                                            -------                                    --------
Admin Audit Log Agent                                                              True                                         255
Query Base DN Agent                                                                True                                           1
Rus Agent                                                                          True                                           2
Mailbox Resources Management Agent                                                 True                                           3
Provisioning Policy Agent                                                          True                                           4
OAB Resources Management Agent                                                     True                                           5
Scripting Agent                                                                   False                                           6
Mailbox Creation Time Agent                                                        True                                           0

Maybe someone can give a hint what should be disabled :)?

Thanks in advance,

Ivica

Hi Ivica,

You need a faster server!. 

Its talking about 'Scripting Agent'  which is already disabled by default. Hence nothing for you to disable here.  All these verification details are necessary for Exchange to function correctly.

Are you following the sizing guidance?
