My windows application has a form that needs to display fresh data to the user at short intervals (say every 10 seconds). For this purpose, I have included a timer. On every timer tick, I perform the database related operations to display the result to the user.
Note: Multiple ...

I had a windows forms application that was originally developed using .NET
1.0, it was running fine but lately i decided to move to .NET 1.1
Now the application takes a lot of memory at startup (about 150 MB) compared
to 20 MB when running on .NET ver 1.0.

I am trying to develop a realtime application which will
receive massive data from COM port and then process it and
store it into database(SQL Server). The data came from
Stock Market central, so will expect heavy load traffic in

I was involved recently in desiging a middle tier class where we essentially
need not track the state of the object, hence  a class with static methods
was preferred. But there were some debate as to whether it made sense to
implement it as a singleton.

Anyone know of some general info on the relative performance of apps based
on Web Forms vs Windows Forms?

Operator overloading is a nice feature for things like vector and matrix
libraries, but I have found that the performance is so low that I can not
use it.
I have appended a small sample program to illustrate the effect. The

Hello!!
Please can someone tell me the reason why the following
code runs a lot slower in managed C++ than native?
Thank you a lot!

I am using Async delegates to make many RPC calls (each of which will take a
max of a couple seconds).  This seemed acceptable since the threads aren't
really doing much on the local machine (the remote machines are doing all
the work).

In a sample web application running on a 2 CPU machine, I have the following
Performance Counter values:
Average % Processor Time - Total = 67%
Average % Processor Time - aspnet_wp = 109%

David, hope you read this.. I wanted to ask you if the next version of
the framework changes the way multidimentional arrays are indexed (i.e
via method calls and not by calculating positions by an offset)? Is
there any particular reason why multidimentional arrays were ...

I have a windows application with a SQL Server database. One of my forms
needs to display fresh values from the database at very short intervals and
display the same to the user continuously. My application uses a class
SqlUtility that handles the interactions with the database. For ...

I noticed that if I monitor .NET CLR Memory, and add '# Bytes in all
Heaps' - I usually get 0.
Is it broken?  How do I see how much memory is allocated by a .Net app?
Thanks.

I am having an issue with projects that are extremely slow to build when I
have a strong name key linked to it.  If I take out the key, it build in
seconds.  But if I leave the key in, it takes anywhere from 35 to a minute
to build small projects.  It never used to be like this and  ...
