Asp.Net vs php : Speed Comparison(naspinski.net)

submitted by naspinski(610) 2 years, 11 months ago

Why is the myth that php is faster than Asp.Net so prevalent? Asp.Net is faster than php, here are the facts. So many times I have heard php pushers claim that php is so much faster than Asp.Net and that Asp.Net is clunky and slow. The most annoying part is that everything I have read (that is not factless opinion), and I mean everything, says that this is wrong; but for some reason, this myth is widely accepted. It has become a religious argument that ignores the facts... read more...

The Greatest Exception Handling WTF?!? of All Time(leedumond.com)

submitted by leedumond(2144) 3 years ago

Cheap way of speeding up Visual Studio I/O(nesteruk.org)

submitted by dmitri(408) 3 years, 3 months ago

Visual Studio loves file I/O. It really, really does, and it cares very little about caching and the like. What this means is that, when you open a solution file, it always reads it from disk. Which means that the speed of operation when generating lots of files (e.g., via T4 transformations) is typically atrocious. The fact that file I/O in VS does not appear to be multithreaded is another hindrance. In short, it’s a mess. read more...

Visual Studio Debugging Feature - Tracepoints(mark-dot-net.blogspot.com)

submitted by Rickasaurus(1225) 3 years, 4 months ago

A tracepoint is simply a breakpoint that will emit a debug trace statement when it is reached. It can emit things like the current function name, stack trace, or the contents of a variable. What's really cool is that you don't have to actually stop execution. This allows you to quickly add debugging statements without the need to check out your code or remember to take the Debug.WriteLine statements out afterwards. read more...

Pimp My Debugger - DebuggerDisplay Attribute(monstersgotmy.net)

submitted by bradygaster(4897) 3 years, 5 months ago

The other day I was reading some friends code, and I saw that he used a DebuggerDisplay attribute. It allows you to create a custom view of your objects in the Visual studio debugger. This attribute is very straight forward, but very powerful in the amount of time it can save you when debugging your application. I'll show you a cookie cutter example, but you can use your imagination as to how to use this particular attribute. read more...
