EVENTLISTENERS, VARIABLES, CPU TIME OR SPORTS CAREER.

Hello,
I have global variables and event listeners, will they decrease cpu times if they are removed?
The delete(); method does not work on dynamic variables such as object, I suppose dynamic variables are simply display object on the stage.
Is there a better way to remove variables by using a for loop?
========================================================================================== =============
The problem with some apps processes.
There are apps processes which takes a lot of CPU time in less than 5 minutes plus there are the built-in processes,
then your computer or macbook heats up,
the fan gets noisy and comsumes more electricity,
everything becomes slow and freezes,
you fail to save your project,
you have to shutdown,
restart,
reopen every apps,
the process continues,
plus your monotone software development lifestyle goes on,
and then you feel like leaving software development for a sport career.
========================================================================================== =============
Some people does not like sports career, but Im starting to realize the advantages in sports career.
In some way it seems funny while some healthy guys at this time are out there with their sports or some actors or singers are having fun.

Note:
You cannot delete an object, but you can make an object eligible for garbage collection by removing all references to the object. The most common reference to an object is a variable that points to it. You can remove such a reference by setting the variable to null. The garbage collector removes any object that has no references.

Thats the answer and it works on Flash player 9 and above.

Breakdown of CPU Time

Hi,
I have make a statspack about our database, and I upload about oraperf website.
But I don't understand "Breakdown of CPU Time"
Detail :
Parse CPU Time 1190 58.42%
Recursive CPU Time 1542 75.70%
Other CPU Time 18446744073709550921 -34.12%
Why The percentage is higher than 100% ?
Nicolas.

Well, you're getting a total of 100% if you include the -34.12% figure. There is clearly a bug in the computation-- you might ask the oraperf folks whether that's a bug in their application or the trace output from your database.
If you run tkprof on your trace file, that should include breakdowns of parse/execute time for each statement. If you see a lot of parsing, your application might benefit significantly by using bind variables appropriately.

Compressor eating CPU time...after quitting

I've been running Compressor lately for some DVD projects. I set up a batch to encode, but quit after about half the video files were encoded to work on some other things. Performance was pretty darn sluggish. I checked Activity Monitor, and lo and behold, compressord and qmasterd were still running and gobbling up CPU time. I force quit both of them, only to see them crop up again a few seconds later. WHAT? A force quit should absolutely terminate the process, no questions asked. I don't want Compressor running in the background, which is why I quit it and Batch Monitor in the first place. This is not a feature, this is a problem, and an inexcusable one at that. Anyone know how to get rid of this crap without a restart?
In addition, Compressor will not let any part of my computer sleep while running. The display on my iMac wont even dim, much go into standby. I can understand why it wouldn't let the computer or hard drive sleep, but the display? Come on! I sleep in the same room as this computer, so it's kind of an annoyance when I want to encode a batch overnight.

Heya Noble,
Basically, your computer's still compressing.
Compressor is the application that allows you to prepare your transcoding and/or encoding.
Once you "submit" the process, Compressor is done.
Qmaster takes over to transcode or encode the file as submitted by Compressor.
Batch Monitor merely allows you to view what's happening until Qmaster is done.
If you force quit Qmaster, then you'll never have a transcoded movie or encoded MPEG2 clip.
Your machine will probably compress 10 minutes of DV-NTSC source to the MPEG2 60 minute high quality setting in about 7 to 8 minutes. So, if you were encoding an hour of footage, you would have to allow Qmaster about 48 minutes to work. HDV source takes much, much longer. If this seems like "forever", then consider this: a G4/400 takes four hours to encode 10 minutes of DV-NTSC source to MPEG2. At that rate, an hour of footage would take a full day to encode.
Most importantly, these numbers are based on not using the computer for anything while it's transcoding and/or encoding. Even surfing the web will increase the time it takes to process the file or files that you've submitted.
If you are frequently submitting jobs to Qmaster, then you might consider getting a second computer so that you can work on one system while the other one encodes. It's not uncommon to have a dedicated box just for encoding. In general, the faster the processor(s), the faster the render.
If you are submitting jobs that are hours in length, then you might look into distributed network encoding that's now available with Compressor (more processors = more speed).
If your budget doesn't allow for another machine, you'll want to plan for using your computer at a "lesser" performance level or not using it at all until the job is completed.
You should be able to put the display to sleep, but not the computer nor the hard drive.
If you're having trouble with this, perhaps a piece of cardboard set in front of the display may block enough light such that you can sleep. You could also cover the computer with a box, just be sure to provide adequate ventilation. Be careful not to cover the computer with a blanket as it's sure to overheat and you won't be running Compressor at all.
Of course, if you don't want to put anything in front of the computer: launch Final Cut Pro, make the Viewer window active while a Slug is open, choose View > Digital Cinema Desktop Preview - Main. Then press command F12 to enable it. Your screen will go entirely black! Press escape to return to disable it. Leave iTunes open while playing some soft tunes and you should be counting sheep in no time.
Hope this helps,

CPU times for application

I am trying to figure out the best way to get CPU times for our
application to do certain things. It sits on top of a database and
I wanted to separate out what the database time and the application
time is. I was going to use the 3C clock function to get a start
time and then a time right before the database call and then a time
when it comes back. It seems like the granularity of the clock function
may not be what I need. Anyone have any ideas on how to do this? Is
this the best way?
Thanks
John

This is a hard question to answer because it depends on the cluster agent/application.
On one hand you may have a simple Sun Cluster application that fails over in seconds because it has to do a limited amount of work (umount here, mount there, plumb network interface, etc) to actually failover.
On the other hand these operations may, depending on the application, take longer than another application due to the very nature of that application.
An Apache web server failover may take 10-15 seconds but an Oracle failover may take longer. There are many variables that control what happens from the time that a node failure is detected to the time that an application appears on another cluster node.
If the failover time is 30 minutes I would ask your vendor why that is exactly.
Not in a confrontational way but a 'I don't get how this is high availability' since the assumption is that up to 30 minutes could elapse from the time that your application goes down to it coming back on another node.
A better solution might be a different application vendor (I know, I know) or a scalable application that can run on more than one cluster node at a time.
The logic with the scalable approach is that if a failover takes 30 minutes or so to complete it (failover) becomes an expensive operation so I would rather that my application can use multiple nodes at once rather than eat a 30 minute failover if one node dies in a two node cluster:
serverA > 30 minute failover > serverB
seems to be less desirable than
serverA, serverB, serverC, etc concurrently providing access to the application so that failover only happens when we get down to a handful of nodes
Either one is probably more desirable than having an application outage(?)

Firefox is using large amounts of CPU time and disk access, and I need to know how to shut down most of this so I can actually use the browser.

Firefox is a very busy piece of software. It's using large amounts of CPU time and disk access. It puts my usage at low priority, so I have to wait for some time to be able to use my pointer or keyboard. I don't know what it uses all that CPU and disk access time for, but it's of no use to me. It often takes off with massive use of resources when I'm not doing anything, and I may not have use of my pointer for several minutes. How can I shut down most of this so I can use the browser to get my work done. I just want to use the web site access part of the software, and drop all the extra. I don't want Firefox to be able to recover after a crash. I just want to browse with a minimum of interference from Firefox. I would think that this is the most commonly asked question.

Cpu time is not getting displayed in explain plan

Hi All,
I am trying to analyze one query using explain plan .like below
1) explain plan for
SELECT /*+ parallel(tsp,8) use_hash( tsp tp) */ count(1)
FROM router tp,
receiver tsp
WHERE tp.rs = tsp.rp
AND creater_date >=to_date('04032009000000','ddmmyyyyhh24miss')
and tsp.XVF is not null
and tp.XVF is not null
and tp.role_name='BR';
2)@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlxpls.sql
But i am getting only following columns in result .
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost |
No Cpu time preset .
How can i extimate CPU time ?
Pls help
Thanks

How can i extimate CPU time ?You need to mention your database version (4-digits, e.g. 9.2.0.8).
In Oracle 9i CPU costing is disabled by default, you need to gather WORKLOAD system statistics to enable the CPU costing.
In 10g CPU costing is enabled by default and uses default NOWORKLOAD system statistics if no WORKLOAD system statistics have been gathered. It can only be disabled by setting an undocumented parameter or by changing the OPTIMIZER_FEATURES_ENABLE parameter back to 9i compatibility.
You can check the status of your system statistics by running the following query in SQL*Plus:
column sname format a20
column pname format a20
column pval2 format a20
select
sname
, pname
, pval1
, pval2
from
sys.aux_stats$;Can you show us the actual (complete) output you get from "utlxpls.sql"? Use the \ tag to preserve formatting here:
\output
\will show asoutput

Mail in 10.6.4 not usable: it consumes all CPU time and will not quit

Mail application does not work properly.
It eats up most of the available CPU time (till >300% on my machine), becomes unresponsive and will only quit when killed by a force quit in the Activity Monitor.
I have only two accounts set up. One Gmail account and a google apps one.
I used to synch with a Blackberry but now I synch directly through google apps.
The problem was sporadic at best at first but has become the usual behaviour now. Major change has been installing 10.6.4
I have switched to Thunderbird since Mail is not usable.
Tx for any hint on how to solve this issue

It seems to be a recurring issue with 10.6.4...there's probably not much mere mortals like us can do. I haven't found a solution. Try re-installing 10.6.4.

ITunes 10.6.3 hogs CPU time

I'll notice the system bogging down...and find that iTunes is use 80% or more of my CPU time in Activity Monitor. This did not happen with 10.6.1. Tips/tricks/suggestions would be appreciated.

I'll notice the system bogging down...and find that iTunes is use 80% or more of my CPU time in Activity Monitor.
There's a couple of different things that can hit folks in this way.
Doublechecking ... are you getting this when iTunes is in the mini player mode? Or in the main player?

Apple mobile device service uses too much cpu time

Apple mobile device service uses too much cpu time, from 88% to 99% of the CPU time.

The best way to fix this is to completely remove all aspects of iTunes then reinstall. Step by step directions are on this article. Good luck

Performance Degradated Possibly due to CPU Time

Hi Gurus,
There is a utility in our application with which we can upload an excel sheet containing data and schedule the timing of the job, now when the job is executed, each row in the excel sheet leads to dml operations on multiple tables finally leading to generation of a transaction no. Now at the start around 100-120 transaction nos were generated which goes down drastically to around 30-35 after 6-7 hours. AWR report at the two instances shows that CPU time has decreased considerably in the 2nd case.
I would like you experts to check the awr reports and suggest me the probable reason for the decrease in performance.

Hi CKPT,
Thanks for your reply.
The main finding that I have got from addm report (in both the cases i.e when performance was good initially vis a vis when performance deteriorated is the same -
FINDING 1: 100% impact (3234 seconds)
Significant virtual memory paging was detected on the host operating system.
RECOMMENDATION 1: Host Configuration, 100% benefit (3234 seconds)
ACTION: Host operating system was experiencing significant paging but no
particular root cause could be detected. Investigate processes that
do not belong to this instance running on the host that are consuming
significant amount of virtual memory. Also consider adding more
physical memory to the host.
I still am unable to find out the reasons ... pls help.
Thanks
Rajesh

This new version of FireFox is making me nutz! It is SUCKING 100% CPU time almost constantly. I could just pull my hair out. I wpdated once a month or so ag

I tried to add this in the topic already open but it kept sending me through the unending rabbit holes!
My question is: How do I figure out what release I was on, get rid of this one and got back to a functional firefox that moves in realtime. I already did all the reset and etc.... I just want to go back to the speed I had. This halting , hanging up misery of a browzer is Sad. I have had firefox for years and always recommended it ..... BUT NOT ANY MORE. I agree with the other poster ... there should be a rollback feature. Peoples time has value and right now FireFox is sucking the value down a rabbit hole.
See Below Comment Feedback submitted before I finally got here:
This new version of FireFox is making me nutz! It is SUCKING 100% CPU time almost constantly. I could just pull my hair out. I wpdated once a month or so ago and it slowed down..... but the latest update before I did the reset really slowed me down. I came here to fix it a couple of dayz ago and did the reset firefox and now it IS RUNNING SO POORLY AND SLOW I AM ABOUT TO KILL IT OFF MY MACHINE!!! Yes that is me yelling - and it happened in SSSSSSSSSSSSS LLLLLLLLL OOOOOOOO WWWWWWWWWW Motion. I have run all the security scans and cleanups ---this needs a fix ASAP!!! PS: The hang ups and slowness is EVERYWHERE I go. I only get speed doing programs not connected to ON LINE.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Question about how to extract CPU time

Hello,
I want to use JAVA program to extract my CPU timestamp or time span between two event, e.g between message transmitting and receiving.I don't know which core API can be used to realize the precision of nano second.
are there any API, which can count the CPU cycles in JAVA?
My platform is Linux (ubuntu)
Thank you in advance

CPU Time in Top 5 Timed Events

Hi,
We have a 2 node RAC database(10.2.0.3) on Solaris 10.
There is performance issue with CMRO application R12.
In database I see CPU time consistently as the top wait event in the Top 5 Timed Events.
This is mostl followed by db file sequential read.
For one of the days:
Top 5 Timed Events
Event Waits Time(s) Avg Wait(ms) % Total Call Time Wait Class
CPU time 8,383 82.8
db file sequential read 173,417 838 5 8.3 User I/O
SQL*Net break/reset to client 26,015 651 25 6.4 Application
enq: TX - row lock contention 1,063 356 335 3.5 Application
gcs log flush sync 37,747 88 2 .9 Other
For other day:
Top 5 Timed Events
Event Waits Time(s) Avg Wait(ms) % Total Call Time Wait Class
CPU time 25,286 62.0
db file sequential read 2,644,332 8,267 3 20.3 User I/O
gc buffer busy 1,358,725 3,830 3 9.4 Cluster
read by other session 438,494 1,169 3 2.9 User I/O
SQL*Net more data to client 19,423 879 45 2.2 Network
Any idea of the of the bottleneck?
Thanks

8 CPUs, load average 4, runqueue 0 and usage 30-35%
Does this indicate any issue with system resourcesNO. Not at all.
However a poor schema design or inefficient SQL execution can mean that a query that should do 100 'consistent gets' is doing 10,000 'consistent gets' -- in the buffer cache, consuming CPU and not waiting for I/O. This is a scenario where you have idle CPU but CPU usage is inefficient. (Thus, for example, adding more CPUs will not help your users at all).
So you should look at the queries and see if queries can be improved.
If, on the other hand, users are not complaining of performance and all response times are within expectations, than you have no issue at all.

Understanding statspack report(CPU time in top time events)

Hi,
I am using oracle 9.2.0.8 RAC on SUN solaris platform.I am trying to understand my DB statistics using the below statspack report.Can you please coment on the below report
My quetions/thoughts are:
1) CPU time is in the top timed events,Is that eman some need to do with CPU increase.Was CPU bottleneck?
2) Parse CPU to Parse Elapsd %: 80.28 .Is this means I am hard parsing most of the time.How can identify which queries doing more hard parses.what is mean by% Non-Parse CPU: 98.76
3) Memory Usage %: 96.25 96.64.It seems to be there is too much memory usage.Can you elaborate this usage about what could be the reasons for this to happen
4) global cache cr request is coming in the top wait evetns and top timed events.Is there some issue with RAC?
5) can you please explain about 5 CR Blocks Served (RAC) and 5 CU Blocks Served (RAC) and Top 5 ITL Waits per
Your help is appreciated!!

This statspack taken for 30 minutes interval.We have 16 CPU's.We never got ORA-4031 errors.It means you have 16 * 30 * 60 = 28,800 seconds CPU available during the interval but you only used 10,406. So you don't have a CPU problem.
For Statspack documentation, you can have a look to <ORACLE_HOME>/rdbms/admin/spdoc.txt, Metalink note 228913.1, Jonathan Lewis Scratchpad, books commended by Rajesh Kumar Yogi and also to http://www.oracle.com/technology/deploy/performance/index.html

[Solved] embedded videos in firefox take a lot of CPU time

Playing embeded videos in Firefox take a lot of CPU time. Actually my old computer is not able to play these videos correctly if they are in HD. The problem appears with flash videos (not so surprising, flash sucks...) but also with html5 videos (there is an option in youtube to turn that on). However if I succeed to have the direct URL, these videos play perfecrtlky fine in mplayer using not more than 10-20% of CPU time. Is there a solution to that? Is there any possibility to use an external player to play HTML5 videos in firefox? If anybody knows, Why this problem, are the mozilla folk aware of this problem? (Note that I posted a thread a long time ago for this problem but concerning flash only)

There's not much you can do to make HTML5 videos as fast as Xv, see http://swfdec.freedesktop.org/wiki/FAQ. They are slow for the same basic reason as Flash... the video overlay cannot be used because the standard allows for controls and CSS to be rendered on top of the video.
As for redirecting to an external player... this is not as easy as it could be. If the videos appeared in <embed> tags or <object> tags, one could use Mozplugger, Media Player Connectivity and other programs, but I don't think one has been written to handle the <video> tag. An upcoming update to firefox will make it use gstreamer, however. If this still results in slow playback, it will at least make it easier to use an external player. I imagine you would have to patch firefox to make it use a port on the localhost as the video sink instead of the screen. Then you would run gst-launch to receive that RTP stream.
