Windows 7 Optimizations on Solid State Drives(blogs.msdn.com)

submitted by zhimingzhiming(1135) 2 years, 4 months ago

Be default, Windows 7 disables Superfetch, ReadyBoost, as well as boot and application launch prefetching on Solid State Drives (SSD) with good random read, random write and flush performance. These technologies were all designed to improve performance on traditional hard disk drives (HDD), where random read performance could easily be a major bottleneck. Because of the design changes, Windows 7 powered PCs with SSDs run fast. To understand how these design changes improve overall system performance, read this team blog post by the Windows 7 product group. read more...

Client Side Table Sorting, Paging and Filtering with jQuery Demo(beckelman.net)

submitted by beckelmwbeckelmw(2755) 3 years, 7 months ago

I have been incorporating client side table sorting, paging and filtering using jQuery and some great plugins that I first wrote about earlier in the week. In the first post I only mentioned the the tablesorter paging plugin and did not demonstrate it. I finally had the chance to start working with the paging plugin and it couldn't be much easier. One thing I ran into though is that by default if you are paged into the data and then click sort, the pager does not reset to the first page. Some searching didn't turn up any similar concerns so since I work from home for a one developer company I thought I would ask you if this makes sense or if I should try and reset the pager when the table is sorted. Please be sure to vote in the poll when you view the live demo. read more...

Functional .NET - Fighting Friction in the BCL with Directory.GetFiles(codebetter.com)

submitted by schalkvanwykschalkvanwyk(1335) 3 years, 7 months ago

The Issues There are several issues that lead me to come up with an alternative for this situation of getting all files in a directory. Arrays shouldn't be returned from method calls Processor intensive for iterating over large directory trees instead of calculating only what I need, when I need it Filtering is weak, and only uses file format patterns Access denied internal messages occur for no apparent reason which halts the method read more...

Client Side ASP.NET ListView Sorting via jQuery TableSorter Plugin Dem(beckelman.net)

submitted by beckelmwbeckelmw(2755) 3 years, 7 months ago

I was recently asked to provide sorting on a ListView that I knew needed it, but had left off originally because I was having trouble with the way I normally handle sorting ListViews with this particular page. This led me to searching for another way. I think what I came up with may replace the way I have been handling user requested sorting (all server side) up until now. What I found was the jQuery TableSorter plugin plus a few extras. The plugin, like just about all jQuery plugins is really easy to use. You just point it at your table and it does the rest (make sure your table has thead and tbody tags though). Of course there are many options that you can set for your particular situation. Check out the demo. read more...
