I have been guided to this great tool for performance analysis (many
thanks to January):
http://www.compuware.com/products/de...03umrS=3019X36
I have installed and run it and immediately noticed its extreme
usefulness and couldn't believe it's free. To figure out what causes
my problem - performance degradation over time - I looked at the
performance analysis report. From the report, I noted 95.7 % of the
time is used in 'the system and other dlls' as the following:
KERNEL32.DLL
Number of Called Methods: 178
Percent of Time Spent in Image: 51.1 (mostly, Sleep and
WaitForSingleOb ject)
Microsoft.Visua lBasic
Number of Called Methods: 105
Percent of Time Spent in Image: 30.0 (mostly,
Microsoft.Visua lBasic.Collecti on.GetEnumerato r)
mscorlib
Number of Called Methods: 985
Percent of Time Spent in Image: 12.4 (mostly, System.Array.Co py and
System.Collecti ons.Hashtable.* )
Being a beginner in VB >and< .NET, I am not familiar with the above.
Could somebody give me some tips about what to do?
Thanks,
Chris
