A question about performance of a system.

Quote from: XFM on 11-October-13, 04:19:18
If you're having performance issues then start a new topic regarding that.
There is a low FPS in the game "Tomb Raider" (less than 22). Could this be due to damage to the board or the old bios (version 1.7)?

Not if everything else works fine...
Sounds like drivers possibly need an update.

  • A simple question about performance!

    Hi! I have a simple question about performance. Suppouse that you have a servlet or a class with DB access, and you need to use a value several times in that page. What is best, to assign the value from say, a resultset or a request.getParameter() to a variable or to call the resultset or the request every time you need to retrieve that value? Which option uses less memory, which is faster, etc.?
    Hoping the best fou u

    If you need more values from a db, the best is to open some connections (connection pool) and use the for accessing the db.
    To get the data only once, open the connection, get the data, store the data whereever you want: variable (class), hidden control (if you want to send from one page to another by request) and close the connection as quicky as possible.
    The advantage of the first method is that the most time consuming activity (connections opening) is done only once.

  • Hi All, I have question about the iMac operating system. I have the last updated. The problem when I manage the place of the folder windows they are all mixing up. I mean they not on the place where I left them. how to set they stay on the same place. Tks

    Hi All, I have question about the iMac operating system. I have the last updated. The problem when I manage the place of the folder windows they are all mixing up. I mean they not on the place where I left them. how to set they stay on the same place? I know there are different possibilities to set.
    I tried but it not helped for me. What I can do? How and where can set this they stay on their place?
    Thanks.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • KDE4 + wallpaper slideshow: few questions about performance / tuning.

    Hello,
    I am using KDE 4.4 from pacman and set my desktop activity to slideshow. I would like to customize few things and thus - I have few questions:
    1) Is it possible to change / disable transition effect when changing wallpapers? All my desktop is choppy and not responsive while the wallpaper changes and I am wondering if there is a way to repair this? (all images used as walls are at max 3MB big, usually something about 1MB. I have 7200 RPM disk, 2GB of ram and rather fast graphics card with newest Nvidia drivers, so I don't know what is the cause of slowdown...)
    2) How can I programatically progress wallpaper to next image (not with the right click / Next Wallpaper image)?
    3) Is there a way to disable the wallpaper change while there is a fullscreen application running? I am asking this, because when I watch HD movies and the wall changes, movie playback is really choppy... (I think that answer to the first question will also help me in this case).
    I would be glad for any sugestions / interest in helping me;)
    Best regards,
    Mike.

    Hello
    1/ There's no way I know to remove the transition. Using the "raster" graphics engine helps a lot on performance : kill plasma-desktop and launch  `plasma-desktop -graphicssystem raster`
    2/ There's a plasma applet for this :
    http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Ne … tent=94251
    http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O … twallpaper
    Maybe you can adapt it to your needs / find out how it works.

  • Questions about Performing a clean install of Snow Leopard

    Hi I plan on performing a clean install of Snow Leopard. I've never done a clean install of any OS before. I have a couple of questions. Is it easy to do? is it safe? Is a clean install of Snow Leopard better than doing an upgrade?
    Do I have to format my new internal hard Drive that I recently installed or only my Main drive?? It's basically used to store movies and music. Any info is greatly appreciated

    why and what exactly do you mean by clean install? install on an empty drive?
    I've never done a clean install of any OS before. I have a couple of questions. Is it easy to do?
    yes.
    is it safe?
    yes
    Is a clean install of Snow Leopard better than doing an upgrade?
    IMO, not if your system is working ok. doing an erase and install will buy you a lot of work migrating your data.
    Do I have to format my new internal hard Drive that I recently installed or only my Main drive??
    yes. boot from the snow leopard dvd, reformat your drive with disk utility (it's in the Utilities menu). set the partition scheme to GUID and format to MAC OS extended journaled. once the drive is reformatted, quit disk utility and proceed with the install.
    It's basically used to store movies and music.
    I don't understand, is it empty or does it have something on it already? all that stuff will be wiped out if you follow the above procedure.
    Any info is greatly appreciated
    I would recommend doing a regular install. just make sure you have a *full backup* before you do. a bootable backup using CCCloner or Superduper is teh best. a TM backup is ok too.
    BTW, you have posted this in the Time machine forum for leopard. this is really not the right place to ask this.

  • Questions About MSI Z87-GD65 System fan Currents!

    Hi,
    I have a few questions on the MSI Z87-GD65 System Fan currents. I want to hook up 2-4 120mm case fans together through a PWM Female to 4 x PWM Male Computer Case Fan Splitter and connect it to one of the SYSfans on the Motherboard, but I am unsure about the current limit on the SYSfan1-3 on the motherboard. Also I was unsure if I needed to have a 4-pin connector or 3-pin connector. On the online manual it says that for Sysfans1-3
    Pin #1 is Ground
    Pin #2 Is Speed Control
    Pin #3 is Sense
    And Pin #4 is NC
    What does NC mean? Do I need a 3 pin or 4 pin connector?
    Thank You For any assistance! 

    NC isn't used.
    The sys fans you only need to get a 3 wire fan for the cpu fans a 4 wire fan would be indicated.
    The amp rating is 1amp I believe.
    If you want to really control and monitor your fans, it is best to use an outside fan controller. I use the Corsair Link in one of my computers which I like, but is overkill.

  • LOB question about performance, fragmentation etc.

    Well..
    I want to discuss the issues around LOB objects.
    If I have an enttity class with n-count fields and then a lob as the n+1th field, does this affect performance in any way ? E.g. if performance is random access for an object without a lob, does the performance get linear or something when the lob is introduced?
    Another one:
    If the latter is true: is it an option for me to use an @OneToOne mapping to compensate ?
    What about fragmentation ? How can a database or whoever compensate for fragmentation, in the case the lob is the n+1th field ? Or just in general: How the fragmentation issues are handled?
    (Im just thinking that lobs introduce fragmentation and brings performance down...)

    This will be san=me if you are considering the Local interfaces.
    For remote interface(like accessing EJB from Servlets resides in diffferent Apps Server) use the DTO(data Transfer Object) patterns.

  • Interview Question about performance

    Could somebody answer this.
    You get a call from database user complaining the database is very slow. Network issue is ruled out and you can't access any GUI tools like OEM, TOAD and Spot Light. What v$ views and columns would you see to if there is any issue with the db.
    thanks in advance.

    Questions like this one can go many directions. Since it is only one user complaining, I might start with v$session, v$process, and v$sql to get the sql text she is executing and test it for performance as a stand-alone query. I might also watch v$session_wait to see if I can see any sign of active waits for various sessions. Of course, if the user is doing a DML, then I might look at v$lock to see if any uncommitted transactions are blocking the user.
    That is just a start. There are many places to look and many possible causes of slowdown.
    Of course, the usual first questions is 'What has changed?'

  • Question about performance (entities & data object)

    Hello:
    I know that this can be, maybe, a silly question, but I've got the doubt
    I get a local reference to a entity ( myEntityLocal ) and I'm going to get many values from it.
    For example
    myEntityLocal.getId();
    myEntityLocal getName();
    myEntityLocal.getAddr();
    etc etc
    My question is
    Would be better, in performance terms, to fill all fields into a data object myEntityData ) and retrieve them from it ?
    I mean
    myEntityData = myEntityLocal.getData() // where getData() calls getter methods on myEntityLocal
    myEntityData.getId();
    myEntityData.getName();
    myEntityData.getAddr();
    I think the result is the same because is a local reference, but I've got that doubt
    Thanks and regards

  • A question about performance in processing a string

    hi all
    i have a string that contains some text - few paragraphs. there are two specific words in the string that i need to search and replace with other stuff. my question is that :
    is it faster to process one line at a time to search two words(in a loop) or use the indexOf method of the String class to find one word at a time (process the text twice)? i don't really know how quick or efficient the indexOf method is. thanks in advance.

    The following program replaces "James" with "Jim" and "William" with "Bill".
    class Test111 {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            String s = "James Gosling, William Gates, William Joy";
            System.out.println (s.replaceAll("\\bJames\\b", "Jim").replaceAll("\\bWilliam\\b", "Bill"));
    }It must print "Jim Gosling, Bill Gates, Bill Joy".

  • HELP: A few questions about the lovely iCloud system

    Hi,
    I have been a big fan of iCloud since the day I started using them. It is just simply amazing I do have a few things in my mind that needs some clarification from those of you here who have been using the system longer than I am.
    Here are my concerns,
    1. Can I back up my PAID APPS in iCloud?
    2. I find this weird because the whole idea of iCloud is to be accessable outside your home right? I tried to login to www.icloud.com at our office but it's giving me a message that says "iCloud is not available this time" all the time. I'm not sure if this has something to do with the firewall they have in our network. Nonetheless, I'm just sharing this thought.
    3. Last but not the least, it the commercials APPLE has shown on television, once an individual purchase an APP, all his iOS devices show the purchased APP. How come it's not showing in my iMAC. I'm talking about the GAMES I have purchased
    I hope someone could point me at the right direction and understand iCloud even more
    Thanks

    1. You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option which is revealed by tapping the updates option at the bottom of the screen of the App store app on your iOS device.
    2. As you suggest this is probably something to do with your work environment.
    3. Automatic downloads need enabling for this to happen, which can be done in iTunes prferences > store, note - only apps purchased after this options enabled will automatically download.

  • Question about Performance

    Hi 
        we have a Sql Server Azure dabase with a Standar 1 subscription.
        I make a test, inserting 400.000 records in a table, with 15 columns and one key (identity)
        I have made queries and the performance is very bad, for example:
                      - a group by one of the table fields spend 16 seconds returning 585 rows
         In other situations, the queries spend more than 2 minutes.
       is this normal for SQL AZURE?

    Hello Javier,
    Can you please share which edition of SQL Database you are using? You should check if you are maxing out the available resources of the edition you are. If so and you don't achieve your performance goals, you should consider using a higher performance level.
    The below article has some guidance:

  • A question about performance of envy 15t-j000

    The windows 8 experience index of my ENVY 15 is 5.0, which is the subscore of desktop graphics performance.
    However, I found that the index shoulde be higher because the artical on http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/review/2290017/hp-envy-touchsmart-15-review/page/3 shows that the total index should be 5.9 with 6.6 on desktop graphics performance. The tech spec of my computer is the same with the one  in that article. Therefore, is there something wrong with my computer, for example, the driver for graphic card is not installed properly?
    Hope someone can provide me a solution. Thanks a lot.

    Not if everything else works fine...
    Sounds like drivers possibly need an update.

  • Question about Performance Operators

    Hello friends...
    I have a doubt, can anyone help me?
    whats the bes operator for good performance ?
    select...
    from...
    where ID IN (a,b)
    or
    select...
    from...
    where ID =a or id=b
    Tks

    In terms of how Oracle uses them, they are they are essentially the same. With an explicit list like your example, Oracle will generally internally re-write the IN to a series of ORs.
    I would use IN in almost all cases since it is more readable and easier to get right if you have other predicates. For example:
    SQL> SELECT * FROM t;
            ID DESCR
             1 One
             1 Un
             2 One
             2 Deux
             3 One
    SQL> SELECT * FROM t
      2  WHERE id in (1, 2) and
      3        descr = 'One';
            ID DESCR
             1 One
             2 One
    SQL> SELECT * FROM t
      2  WHERE id = 1 or
      3        id = 2 and
      4        descr = 'One';
            ID DESCR
             1 One
             1 Un
             2 One
    SQL> SELECT * FROM t
      2  WHERE (id = 1 or
      3         id = 2) and
      4        descr = 'One';
            ID DESCR
             1 One
             2 OneJohn
