DMZ Slowness in ASA firewall

Level 1

I have few servers connected in DMZ zone of my ASA Firewall. Earlier in the old setup there was no slowness. I did  migration and upgrade switches to Cisco C3560-IPBASE-M.

After this activity the users are started complaining in access the Oracle servers and SQL servers.

SQL Server is located in inside (192.168.200.56

Appliacation Server is located in DMZ (172.16..11.126).

interface GigabitEthernet0/3.1

Everything is fine, ping telnet, mstsc but only when Query the data it got stuck. It is taking too much time. There is bad slowness in this communication.

Please let me know what is wrong. The switches are connected with each over Trunk.

Same trunk configuration is there on Switch 2 and Switch 3. Servers are connected to Switch 3.

Please help me out why the network is slow in DMZ segment.

Since the server is being translated through the ASA, have you tried enabled sqlnet inspection?
