        I work with biztalk2006 (NOT R2), windows server 2003. I have a receive location with a file adapter which should process a maximum of only 75 files per 15 minutes. I tried setting the polling interval..but as soon as the files are made available, all of them are processed at once. Is there any way this can be handled ? Any help is very much appreciated.

          you can scale -out the system . Go for the Biztalk host clustering .

            Try setting the batch file size to 75 and the polling interval to 15 mins

              Maybe you could build some sort of a throttle using the ideas that are found here at Richard Seroter’s blog

                I’m not sure you can do this on the Receive side.  The Adapters are written to handle a lot of messages… not really throttle down to a specific number.

                Assuming each message starts an Orchestration or is in a Convoy, you would do this via a custom process.  Using a counter inside a database, process X messages per interval. It would all be custom code inside an Orchestration to read / write to a DB table. 

                Other than maybe a custom Adapter, don’t really think of another way to do it.

                Hope this helps.
