View 6 RepliesPossible To Split Up Threads (currently 6) So That 3 Run On Each Core?
Oct 18, 2011I have a VB.NET app that spawns several threads for performing XML parsing/database interaction. Only one of my cores (only have 2 currently) is being used right now.I've looked at Task Parallelism in .NET 4 but I need to be able to start a task at different times (not all at once).Is it possible to split up the threads (currently 6) so that 3 run on each core? Also, if I don't want to limit my threads to 6, how can I check CPU/memory programmatically to find out if I can start another thread.

.net - Null Reference Exception DNN Core 5.6.3
Jul 26, 2011My site has been running fine for sometime now until recently I see in the event viewer a null reference exception in the DNN core:

the line 1125 is:

Calcualte CPU Usage For An X-Core Machine?
Aug 2, 2010Trying to make a badly archictected system work. In doing so we have ourselves in a postion of shelling mulitple instances of a program and managing the running processes. On startup the shelled program is CPU intensive and we need to limit the rate that we initiate the instances based on the CPU load. How do you calculate the CPU load of a multicore system?

Feb 24, 2009How can i change a process using only 1 core instead of 2 cores? Also, how can I set different prioritys to each process?As it does not save the settings which i put to each process in taskmanager on restart, i decided to make a program so i could simply click a button so it would change the settings for each process i want.For example:With a simple button click it changes msnmsgr.exe priority to low and makes it use only the 1st core.

C# - Multithreading On A Multi Core Machines Not Maxing CPU?
Jul 14, 2009I am working on maintaining someone else's code that is using multithreading, via two methods:
1: ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem(New WaitCallback(AddressOf ReadData), objUpdateItem)
2: Dim aThread As New Thread(AddressOf LoadCache) aThread.Start()
However, on a dual core machine, I am only getting 50% CPU utlilization, and on a dual core with hyperthreadin enabled machine, I am only getting 25% CPU utilization. Obviously threading is extremely complicated, but this behaviour would seem to indicate that I am not understanding some simple fundamental fact?
[code]...
And this is occurring in a recursive function, so the QueueUserWorkItem can be executing multiple times, which in turn then executes exactly one new thread via the aThread.Start
Hopefully that gives a decent idea of how things are happening. under this scenario, should this not theoretically pin both cores, rather than maxing out at 100% on one core, while the other core is essentially idle?

View 3 RepliesThread Affinity In Multi-core System?
Nov 29, 2011I was going to hijack another, related, thread to ask this, but I figured it derserved its own thread.The question I have is whether or not anybody has done sufficient testing to show whether a mutlithreaded program running on a multi-core system will spread the threads across all available cores, or whether it has some affinity for the core used by the main process (UI thread, or whatever it may be)? The reason I ask is because I remember a discussion over in General Computing where somebody showed that, for at least one case, all the threads were splitting time on a single core of a multi-core processor. I am wondering if that is the typical behavior, or an isolated case?
View 23 RepliesTimers Under Windows 7 Dual Core Processors ?
Aug 27, 2010After I upgraded from Windows Xp to Windows 7 on any dual core cpu machine my programs that use a simple timer function run incorrectly. The program works with the exact same hardware under Windows Xp and Windows Server 2003. I am using Visual Studio 2005 to write .NET Visual Basic programs that use 2 timers to count down. The first timer, timer1, is set to a value say 150000 ms (150 seconds). The second timer, timer2, is set to 1000ms (1 second). Both timers are enabled one right after the other from a button click event and begin. The timer2 routine running every second updates a label counting down the seconds. When timer1 fires it disables itself and exits. Timer2 also checks to see if timer1 is still running if it is not it will stop. Under Windows Xp and Windows Server 2003 the resulting count in the label is 0 when timer2 detects timer1 has finished. Under Windows 7 when timer1 stops timer2 is not at 0 it is 3 for 150 seconds and gets larger the more timer1 is increased. It appears to me timer2 is not being fired every 1000ms as it was under Windows Xp.
I have included the Visual Basic code below. If you want to test it just run Visual Studio and create a new project. Put the buttons, numericupdown, and labels in your form and past my code into the correct buttons. I have used these type of timer events for years without any problems unit Windows 7. Windows 7 on a single core Pentium 4 with hyperthreading turned on works fine. Windows 7 on a dual core E6500 fails, Windows Server 2003 works.

View 10 RepliesAttempted To Read Or Write Protected Memory / Often An Indication That Other Memory Is Corrupt
May 22, 2007Im getting a problem with one of my programs I have made in visual basic.NET where it gives me a memory error when i debug the program in the IDE. the exact error is this: "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt". My program basically has a few forms with text fields on that get their text values from an access database on the same hard drive. Im wondering if im doing something wrong because my program just seems to eat up memory whenever it does anything. For example I have one form that has a combobox on it and when you change the drop down list selection it retreives a few strings from the database and puts them into the relevant text boxes, if you keep changing the selection then the memory usage (in task manager) just keeps going up and up. occasionally I get the error mentioned above when debugging but in my built version of the program it throws an exception everytime the memory usage gets past 49K.
Also I noticed when debugging in the "immediate window" frame I get the following message often:A first chance exception of type 'System. Invalid OperationException' occurred in System.Data.dll...Do I need to somehow be "releasing" the memory that is used to gather data once it becomes redundant?

View 1 RepliesThread And Memory Leaks - Memory Usage Jumps About 1000k And It Never Goes Back Down
Apr 17, 2011I've noticed that every time I start a new thread in my program, the memory usage jumps about 1000k and it never goes back down. I have ensured that the thread is no longer running, and only one instance of my worker thread is ever running at a time. I am using ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem and ASyncOperation to get stuff done. The program starts using a Sub Main in a module that uses STAThread; I read that using STAThread instead of MTAThread makes it impossible for the Garbage Collector to get in and consider objects for garbage collection. However, when I change the STAThread to an MTAThread, the WebBrowser control in my frmMain cannot be instantiated.
I get this exception:
Code: An unhandled exception of type 'System.Threading.ThreadStateException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll
Additional information: ActiveX control '8856f961-340a-11d0-a96b-00c04fd705a2' cannot be instantiated because the current thread is not in a single-threaded apartment. I do threading with the WebBrowser control, so will using MTAThread fix my problem? If so, how should I partition my code so that the WebBrowser control won't be affected by the above exception? I call the thread repeatedly with a timer (although only one instance ever runs at a time), and my program's memory usage starts at about 5000k and can jump to 300,000k+ depending on many times the thread needs to be called.
.net - Multi-core Processor Pegged Even When All Threads Are Just Sleeping?
Mar 3, 2010I'm simulating some threading in a Windows Service, and the Thread.Start routine for each of my threads points directly to the following:
Private WithEvents CheckForOrdersTimer As System.Threading.Timer
Private Sub timerCheckForContracts_Tick(ByVal stateInfo As Object)
' Ticks every 5 seconds, then spawns threads until we're at our max

[code]....
the threads aren't even doing anything yet, but with more than two threads running at the same time, my processor (Core 2 Duo 2.4 w/ 4GB) gets pegged and Windows gets really sluggish. According to what I've read, Thread.Sleep shouldn't be consuming any resources at all while it waits, but it may as well be running in a tight timing loop.
EDIT: Per the requests, I've expanded the amount of code I'm using. I was initially doing some database work before spawning each thread, but I've removed it and the processor maximization still occurs with just the code here (and, of course, the OnStart method for the Windows Service.

May 27, 2009I cannot use Visual Basic 2008 at all. When I go to "new project" and choose "Windows Form Application" I get this error.I have tried multiple uninstall/reinstall with no result.A microsoft reply to this suggested that I needed: " .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 " I checked, and I did not have the .netframework 2.0 service Pack 1.
When I tried to download and install the above from Microsoft.com, the istaller said that "it was not allowsed" and I was not able to install the service pack 1.
I tried Uninstalling net framework 3.5, 3.0, 2.0 and then reinstalling .netframework 2.0 sevice pack 1; then reinstalling Visual basic 2008 express edition. At the reinstall of Visual basic 2008, .netframework 2.0 sevice pack 1 is unistalled by .net framework service pack 2.When I check the foruims for simiar problems, the formus are mostly for Visual basic 5.0, or other programs that I do not have.

Motherboards Do Expose Core Temperatures In WMI / ACPI Thermal Zone?
Jun 7, 2012I'm currently working on a Visual Basic program that should be able to show CPU temperatures.To do this the cleanest way (in my opinion), I would like to use the Windows Management Interface (WMI) using
MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature.Now, to my understanding, this requires that motherboard (MOBO) manufacture exposes these values to the WMI, which almost nobody actually do, but if they do, a "device" should show
up in the device manager called ACPI Thermal Zone under System Devices (let me know if I'm wrong).
As I would like to test my program and my current MOBO (Gigabyte GA-H67A-USB3-B3) doesn't seems to expose CPU temperatures to WMI (no
