Re: Concurrently streaming a file to HttpResponse and file IO

Peter Bromberg [C# MVP] wrote:
I'm not convinced the proposed strategy makes a lot of sense -- It would take
about the same time to read a resource from the disk as it does to select it
out of a SQL server database table. So by having the extra work of storing
requested resources in disk files, you might find that you haven't
particularly bought yourself much increase in scalability - possibly even a
decrease in same.
For many small files it would certainly decrease performance
sine file opening is an expensive process.

But for 32 MB BLOB's it may still be beneficial. At least
if the files are served by IIS not by an ASP.NET page.

I am playing with the XMLHTTPRequest method to perform client/server transactions. I have it set up right now so that when readyState is 4, it takes the XML and processes it. This works great until there is alot of data. In that case, the user will have to wait for the data to come back which may take a minute or so. I don't want the user to have to wait. Is it possible for javascript to periodically (while still receiving more data)...

I need to enable users to download data in either an Excel file or an Access database (MDB file). The data they need exists in a SQL Server database: the XLS or MDB file does not actually exist at the time the users request it. My initial plan is that when users request their data, they will click a button or link indicating that they want their data in the respective file format. Then, on the server I want to execute a stored...

Hi, Two questions for you all.. Firstly, is there a way of streaming video using PHP? At the moment I just have a link to a video file and the whole thing downloads before playing which is a bit of a chore as the video file is pretty huge. Secondly, I want to restrict access to the video using a password. Can anyone think of a nice way of doing this? I thought about having the video

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
