Speed in VB 2005

I upgraded from VB 2003 to VB 2005.

I have a 4000 record table in Access that I'm using oleDB to do a data
adapter fill to a Data Grid. In VB.2003 it takes 2-3 seconds to load the
data grid in vb 2005 it takes aroudn 20 seconds. IS there something that
could be causing this problem?

Stephen,

I don't know if the method with the datareader will help you.

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...able.load.aspx

I did not test that.

Cor,

Thanks for the quick program and test. I'll need to go back to using
vb.NET for now until this can get resolved; what are the procedures for
finding out when this gets fixed?

>Stephen,

I don't know why it is,

I made this Test program
\\\
'Set in advance a reference to COM adox ext 2.x for dll and security

Public Class Main
Public Shared Sub Main()
'cleanup old databases
Dim catNewDB As New ADOX.Catalog
Dim fi As New IO.FileInfo("c: \db1.mdb")
If fi.Exists Then
If MessageBox.Show ("Delete?", "Existing File db1.mdb", _
MessageBoxButto ns.YesNo) = DialogResult.Ye s Then
fi.Delete()
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End If
catNewDB.Create ("Provider=Micr osoft.Jet.OLEDB .4.0;" & "Data
Source=C:\db1. mdb")

Dim conn As New
OleDb.OleDbCon nection("Provid er=Microsoft.Je t.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
" Data Source=C:\db1.m db;User Id=admin;Passwo rd=;")
Dim cmd As New OleDb.OleDbComm and("CREATE TABLE tester ( " & _
"Id int ," & _
"Whatever NVarchar(50)," & _
"CONSTRAINT [pk_Id] PRIMARY KEY (Id)) ", conn)
conn.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQ uery()
conn.Close()
Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim da As New OleDb.OleDbData Adapter("Select * from tester", conn)
da.Fill(ds)
For i As Integer = 0 To 40000
ds.Tables(0).Lo adDataRow(New Object() {i, i.ToString}, False)
Next
Dim cmb As New OleDb.OleDbComm andBuilder(da)
da.Update(ds)
Dim ds2 As New DataSet
Dim start As Integer = Environment.Tic kCount
da.Fill(ds2)
MessageBox.Show ((Environment.T ickCount - start).ToString )
End Sub
End Class
///

The result is that the Fill part is about 7 times slower in VB2005 than
in VB2003

I will put this problem as well in another place.

It does not help you but you know that I had the same result.

Yes a lot, but in most cases (not all) VBNet is faster.

Can you show a piece of your code that does the fill of the datagrid?

fwiw, I'd like to see any dotNet code run faster than a fully compiled and
optimized VB6 version of that same code. Heck... I'd like to see a dotNet
IDE that starts up in less time than it takes to make a cup of coffee. Oh
well... Quad core CPUs are coming out soon. Maybe then we'll see 386 era
performance from a dotNet app.

I have a simple 192-line Python script that begins with the line: dummy0 = 47 The script runs in less than 2.5 seconds. The variable dummy0 is never referenced again, directly or indirectly, by the rest of the script. Here's the surprise: if I remove or comment out this first line, the script takes more than 15 seconds to run. So it appears that adding a redundant line produces a spectacular six-fold increase in speed!

Hi. I've built a page using standard ASP.NET 2.0 features and when I upload a large file (>20MB) to our intranet server, I get a paltry 100KB/s on our 100Mb/s LAN. Simply copying the file, I get around 7MB/s. I'm using a FileUpload control on an .aspx page, and then I'm writing the MyFileUpload.PostedFile.InputStream off to a database. What can I do to speed up this uploading? Thanks in advance

I recently switched temporarily from C# to VB.NET to see what the differences are. To my surprise I am *much* faster with VB.NET.
