Read Chapter 16, "Testing .NET Application Performance" to learn how to apply performance testing to your application. It is important that you apply a coherent testing process and that you be able to analyze the results. Tune your application performance. Read the "CLR Tuning" section of ...
This is a bit more difficult to code, but it is significantly faster than the other methods, no matter how many rows are to be deleted. To useAutoFilter, you need to have field names at the top of your data. A dummy row is first inserted above the data and a dummy field name supp...
How the system responds to increasing workloads: what performance it provides, and as the workload increases, whether it crashes or enables performance to gracefully degrade. How easy it is to add processors, CPUs, storage, and I/O resources to a system or network to serve increasing demands ...
A file or picture control used entirely within an InfoPath form works transparently to the user. However, if you want to access the data outside of InfoPath, you must decode it. This involves two steps: converting the data from the base64-encoded format into a binary format and determining...
How to Copy Files With Secure ShellUse the scp command to copy encrypted files between hosts. You can copy encrypted files between either a local and remote host, or between two remote hosts. The command operates similarly to the rcp command except that it prompts for passwords. See scp(1)...
How ReleaseComObject Works An RCW maintains an internal marshaling count, which is completely separate from the COM object reference count. When you callReleaseComObject, the RCW's internal marshaling count is decremented. When the internal marshaling count reaches zero, the RCW's single reference co...
Figure 11-5A City Scene Close-up Containing a Complex Tree Mesh with Roughly Half a Million Polygons Figure 11-6The Same Model as in , Zoomed Out In the future, we will investigate additional performance optimizations, especially for handling scenes with extremely high geometric complexit...
The classical school is called “classical” because it’s how everyone originally approached unit testing and test-driven development. The London school takes root in the programming community in London. The discussion in this chapter about the differences between the classical and London styles lays...
The Master Boot Record on each hard disk contains an area called the Partition Table that the computer uses to determine how to access the disk. It has room for four entries, called partitions, that you create to make it easier to organize information. A partition must be completely ...
If Push with Propagation is checked, a push partner will be directed to send any new information it receives as a result of the operation to all of its own pull partners. The Push Partner Properties dialog box allows you to specify how many changes must be made to the WINS database ...
