So many factors can affect the performance of a Web page—the distance between server and client, the size of the elements on the page, how the browser loads these elements, available bandwidth. Finding those bottlenecks and identifying the culprits is Read More...
There’s no programming model that magically eliminates all concurrency-related issues, so understanding how memory and caches work is still important to write efficient parallel programs. In the October 2008 issue of MSDN Magazine , Stephen Toub, Igor Read More...
Algorithm efficiency is not as straightforward as you might think. A well-designed algorithm on a single processor can often outperform an inefficient implementation on multiple processors. In the October 2008 issue of MSDN Magazine , Kenny Kerr walks Read More...
Designing distributed systems has never been easier. But developing robust systems that handle failure scenarios without losing data is far from trivial. In the July 2008 issue of MSDN Magazine , Udi Dahan walks you through his team’s efforts to diagnose Read More...
The CLR garbage collector divides objects into small and large categories. When an object is large, some attributes associated with it become more significant than if the object is small. With the June 2008 issue of MSDN Magazine , Maoni Stephens explains Read More...
To reliably create high-performance programs, you need to understand the performance of the individual components you use. Thus, measurement has to be an integral part of the design process. In the April 2008 issue of MSDN Magazine , Vance Morrison showed Read More...
Performance problems can creep into your ASP.NET app as it scales up, and when they do, you need to determine what the actual problem is and find the best strategies to address it. In the April 2008 issue of MSDN Magazine , Richard Campbell and Kent Alstad Read More...
Many applications are written with almost no thought given to performance. But when the need for high performance does present itself, do you have the knowledge, skills, and tools to do a good job? In the April 2008 issue of MSDN Magazine , Vance Morrison Read More...
Whether you write your applications in native C/C++, C#, or Visual Basic, Visual Studio Profiler significantly simplifies performance investigations and helps you write faster and more efficient applications. In the March 2008 issue of MSDN Magazine , Read More...
as waiting for an application to start is frustrating to many users, focusing on your client application's startup performance can greatly enhance your customers' first and lasting impressions of your handiwork. And because startup performance matters Read More...
Many application performance problems can be traced to poorly performing database queries; however, there are many ways you can improve database performance. SQL Server 2005 gathers a lot of information that you can use to identify the causes of such Read More...
