Hi!
I am trying to read LPT's data port as fast as possible. I know that
Digitrace (link to the program below) achieves 750kS/s, but my program
achieves only 280kS/s. My program is written in VB.NET 2005, although I
wrote it in C too. Speed is the same in both cases. Assembler is faster
- it gains 480kS/s. I am wondering how it is possible to read LPT's data
port faster? At least as fast as Digitrace does. Maybe you could help me?
VB.NET and C version of my program use Inpout32.dll, assembler version
GiveIO (allowio). Digitrace uses GiveIO.

No, it does not. Neither function is part of the standard C library.
They are non-standard extensions provided by your compiler. Take this
a Windows group like news:comp.os.ms-windows.program mer.win32. It's
off-topic here.

Hi,
I'm reading data from a text file, and having read a bit on performance and
memory, I'm wondering how it could be done in the fastest, most frugal way.
The data comes in messages, one per line, in a text file. I'm interested in
one of six messages, but I don't think there's any guarantee in the ordering
of the messages. Each message is identified by the first six characters in
the line.

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to write a program that does a few things very fast
and with efficient use of memory...
a) I need to parse a space-delimited file that is really large,
upwards fo a million lines.
b) I need to store the contents into a unique hash.
c) I need to then sort the data on a specific field.
d) I need to pull out certain fields and report them to the user.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
