Pushing the Limits of Windows: Physical Memory(blogs.technet.com)

submitted by crpietschmann(11.3k) 3 years, 6 months ago

This is the first blog post in a series I'll write over the coming months called Pushing the Limits of Windows that describes how Windows and applications use a particular resource, the licensing and implementation-derived limits of the resource, how to measure the resource’s usage, and how to diagnose leaks. To be able to manage your Windows systems effectively you need to understand how Windows manages physical resources, such as CPUs and memory, as well as logical resources, such as virtual memory, handles, and window manager objects. Knowing the limits of those resources and how to track their usage enables you to attribute resource usage to the applications that consume them, effectively size a system for a particular workload, and identify applications that leak resources. read more...

How to: Optimize the memory usage with strings(dotnetfacts.blogspot.com)

submitted by eugenciuta(715) 3 years, 10 months ago

System.String type is used in any .NET application. We have strings as: names, addresses, descriptions, error messages, warnings or even application settings. Each application has to create, compare or format string data. Considering the immutability and the fact that any object can be converted to a string, all the available memory can be swallowed by a huge amount of unwanted string duplicates or unclaimed string objects. Now let's see how a string object should be handled to preserve memory. read more...

String Concatenation vs Memory Allocation(blog.cumps.be)

submitted by CumpsD(360) 4 years, 4 months ago

Over the years, plenty has been written about string performance, lots of comparisons between String.Concat and StringBuilder. Today I decided to do some of my own research into the subject and contribute to the knowledge already out there. More specifically, I'll be taking a look at the memory usage for various concatenation methods. read more...

Managing unmanaged memory (rajkwatra.blogspot.com)

submitted by rajkwatra(245) 4 years, 8 months ago

The title of this post might seem confusing. Garbage Collector (or GC) in .Net is designed to take care of managed memory only, so what do you do in a case where you have a managed object that itself takes very small amount of memory but allocates significant amount of unmanaged resources? In that case.... read more...

Memory in .NET - what goes where(yoda.arachsys.com)

submitted by simoneb(5450) 5 years, 6 months ago

A lot of confusion has been wrought by people explaining the difference between value types and reference types as "value types go on the stack, reference types go on the heap". This is simply untrue (as stated) and this article attempts to clarify matters somewhat. read more...
