How to measure/monitor remoting performance

Hi,

I'm looking for help monitoring the communication of a client/server
application. We are using the .Net default serialization/
deserialization with the binary formatter using .Net 2.0. I don't see
any chance spying on what is going on during communication. We
experience poor performance and I want to figure out why.

I'd like to measure the throughput and amount of data and I'd like to
figure out how much time is consumed by serialization/deserialization
compared to sending the data over the wire.

I've read "Improving .NET Application Performance and Scalability" by
Meier et.al., but didn't found the sections about remoting very
helpful.

Bye,

Frank

In a remoting scenario, it's harder to determine where your bottlenecks are.
The approach I would start with would be to wire in an optional time logging
class that gives the entry datetime, exit datetime and class/method name for
each method call in your app. If you log all this info to the same database
table, it should be relatively easy to construct a timeline for your tests
and see what part is hanging things up.

Hi I am trying to design an IO subsystem for my SQL Server and for that I need to try and predict IO activity on each table in my MSSQL Database. My idea is to move the hottest tables into special disk subsystem away from the less hotter tables. So far I have gathered that we have three tables more hot than the others but I have no feeling on ratio on how hot each is and how much activity is on the less hotter tables. I need to...

I was running some tests on my Win32 1GHZ processor to see how long it would take to transmit objects numerous times via TCP/IP using C# ..NET Remoting vs the C++ trustworthy method of binary streams. I ran the test for 50K, 100K, 500K iterations, where each iteration consists of sending an object from a client process to a server process, and the server process sends back an ack. Here are the results: .NET Remoting C++...

I need to write a server app to send images to client GUIs that are outside of the server's domain. The client will have the file system path to the image but can not access the file system. I am trying to decide if I should use remoting vs. writing a server that uses networkstreams. I have read that networkstreams\tcp programming should be faster than remoting and is a better choice for what I am doing but that it is difficult to code.

I am working on an application that is a front-end for a SQL database. While it is not an immediate requirement, the application will probably be required to be able to connect via the internet at a later date, so we are implementing the data connections via remoting. The remoting is implemented via the HTTP channel, with the binary formatter. We have noticed, however, that the remoting calls seemed to be much slower that the OLEDB calls,...

My apologies if this is not the forum to post questions regarding .NET Remoting, but I figured WebServices would be the most appropriate forum of the bunch. We're currently completely re-arching some software (currently it's essentially a single tier app - a giant meat ball - we're turning it into an n-tier architecture; gotta love ex-employees). One of the things we're looking at doing is using Remoting from the client to an appserver...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
