Forms :: Optimize Code And Lower CPU Usage?
May 14, 2009
When my form first loads, it runs at about 30k CPU, but after about 10 minutes of use, it goes up to (and stays at) about 70k CPU.
What ways can i optimize my code to allow the CPU usage to stay low, or how can i lower it during the running of the program.
My most concerned areas of the CPU are:
1. I have a web browser, and when a user types in a url and presses go or enter, the CPU jumps about 4k:
Private Sub Go_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Go.Click
WebBrowser1.Navigate(OldURL.Text)
[Code]....
The second worry is when i open other forms, it boosts the CPU up aswell. the only code for this is:
Form.Show()

this is in reference to my main post here update mdb with data from different tables in dataseti have two tables in a dataset called dsSource. dsSource.Tables(0) has the following columns: ,,,,,,,code,art,sizerng1,sizerng2,sizerng3,etc...... dsSource.Tables(1) has the following columns: ,,,,,,,code,art,size1,size2,size3,etc...... the conditions here are: 1) to look for "1" in columns sizerng1, sizerng2, etc. of dsSource.Tables(0) 2) match code and art on both tables finally if both conditions are valid then the size values in columns size1, size2, etc. will be assigned to columns in sizerng1, sizerng2, etc. my main concern here is i have to loop through all rows in both tables which takes a long time, so is there a better way to do this than the code i have below?.
'***put the sizes from weights to traps file
row1 = 0
For Each dr As DataRow In dsSource.Tables(0).Rows

I have started with a small project in VB2008 Express which grew to a complex application. I have deployed the application recently discovering it is rather small, and the major issue is that code-generated controls (checkboxes, comboboxes, textboxes) are not displayed as during development. I have declared the code-generated controls in the declaration region, and there are about 250 controls. According to user selection some of the controls are added to a container panel. Now, I am concern that because I declare those as public (static?) variables, it uses much memory and causes the problem in the compiled application. Is that correct that static declared and code-generated controls uses much memory? How to avoid it ? I need the controls as public variables. Is it better to add all 250 controls on the form in designer mode, and use the property Visible (control.visible=True)?

I found this code to rotate a picture online somewhere and made some changes and it works beautifully. My only problem is how much memory it uses. Does anyone see a way for it to use less memory?
Code:
Private Sub RotatePicture(ByRef bm_in As Bitmap, ByVal angle As Integer)
' Copy the output bitmap from the source image.

When a user make a program in visual basic, for example, can he/she copy and use some of the code samples provided in the MSDN Library? Is one totally free to use such code in one's programs, and even allowed to sell software containing such sample code, or does one have to massively modify it so that it resembles little of the original.

Consider this
bar = 1
foo = <1 or 2, depending on previous code>
if foo=1
while bar <= 5
[code].....
What I want to know is, is the compiler smart enough to optimize away the (apparently) repeated tests for "foo = 1" since foo is not modified in the body of the loop?If so, I might use the second construct since it is semantically equivalent (I think!), takes less code and reduces indentation levels.

Is it possible to use a string as an array? I mean:' I have several arrays
Dim a10() As Integer = {530}
Dim a15() As Integer = {370, 231}
Dim a20() As Integer = {305, 176, 126}
'I declare a variable as a string and I assign the name of an array to it
Dim tablaalfa As String = "a10"
'I retrieve data from the array using the name of the variable instead:
lbl1.Text = tablaalfa(2)
I guess it doesn't work in this way?

vbc.exe has something called /optimize switch right. If I enable that what are the optimizations the compiler can do for me? The MSDN documentation just curtly says 'does various compiler optimizations'. Where can I find the complete quantified view of the different optimizations that actually goes into.Here is the thing I am pursuing this route. One of the code blocks in a module I am leading has a lot of delimited array manipulations. I believe this is going to be a heck costly in terms of string memory handling. I am looking to see if I can retire them by way of simple properties or methods so that the compiler can internally do something like our c++ inline functions making a best win-win offer in terms of both memory and processing time. I admit when the compiler translates them as inline function, the JITed code might be big in size right?

I basically want to remove the formula from the cells but want to retain the calculated values.
SO, I implemented it easily and it works great but REALLY SLOW. (About 2 mins for 1800 cells)
I have : Dim col As Excel.Range = getRange()For Each cell In col cell.Value = cell.Value Next
I tried to do this to the first cell and then autofill the rest, but that copied the value of 1st cell to the rest of the cells in column.

Often it is very usefull to save data as a class by serialize and compress it. From few experiments I have noticed that
Class A
Public name as string
Public List as new list(of string) <---- empty
End Class
Class B
Public name as string
Public List as list(of string) <----- not instantiated
End Class
If I serialize and compress the 2 classes the class B uses less spaces once serialized and compressed. This suggests me that if a class contains a list that is instantiated but empty it is better to set that to nothing and reset as new when it is decompressed and deserialized. Is there any dll that optimizes a class to be stored (serialized and compressed) and restore it when it is decompressed and deserialized?

I've read several articles and questions/answers that conclude the best practice is to let the JIT compiler do all the optimization for inline function calls. Makes sense. What about inline variable declarations? Does the compiler optimize these as well?
[Code]...
Of course I prefer the latter because it's easier to read and debug, but I can't afford the performance degradation if it exists. I have already identified this code as a bottleneck -- No need for retorts about premature optimization.

Code:
Tables:
- Company
- Department
- Employee
- CertificationA
- CertificationB
I am trying to return a recordset that gives some summary information about each company. The fields in my returned recordset should look like the following.
Company.Name, NumberOfDepartments, NumberOfEmployees, NumberOfCertificationA, NumberOfCertificationACompleted, NumberOfCertificationB, NumberOfCertificationBCompleted
There are actually about 10 different Certification tables but, with Certification A and B you should get the hang of it. When an employee starts a certifaction, a record is added to the that certification table.Below is a query I wrote that works (gets me the data I need), but I am unsure if it is the most efficient way. There will be quite a lot of data so performance is an issue.
Code:
Dim sqlNumberOfDepartments As String
sqlNumberOfDepartments = _
"(SELECT COUNT(*) " & _
"FROM DEPARTMENT " & _

My LINQ query contains the following Group By statement:
Group p By Key = New With { _
.Latitude = p.Address.GeoLocations.FirstOrDefault(Function(g) New String() {"ADDRESS", "POINT"}.Contains(g.Granularity)).Latitude, _
.Longitude = p.Address.GeoLocations.FirstOrDefault(Function(g) New String() {"ADDRESS", "POINT"}.Contains(g.Granularity)).Longitude}
The query works, but here is the SQL that the clause above produces
SELECT [t6].[Latitude]
FROM (
SELECT TOP (1) [t5].[Latitude]
[Code]....
but this produced an error: "A group by expression can only contain non-constant scalars that are comparable by the server."

If I have a large number of classes, each similar to the other in certain aspects (they all share a common base class, but each does things differently), and I need to create Windows forms for each to allow easy changing of their values through a GUI? Create one matching form for each object in VS' forms designer, Or Use code to create the forms dynamically at runtime.
#2 makes the most sense to me, because a lot of these objects will share very common features of the form, notably "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons. But one object might need to draw a textbox on the form while another might need to draw a combobox. Not to mention, if I want to put icons on the "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons, I'd have to do this for each copy of the form in designer, and that sounds like it could get out of hand quickly.But is drawing forms through code sane? VS' forms designer is pretty sophisticated and designed to make life easier. Am I wise to consider ignoring its functionality and diving into the trench warfare of forms design through code? Or are there examples of automating form creation based on an existing object's properties?
