Calcualte CPU Usage For An X-Core Machine?
Aug 2, 2010
Trying 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?

i have intel core quad cpu but my program cant use more than one of cores(it use 25% of cpu power but i want use 50% and more).
affinity is "<All Processors>" and all of cores are selected.
is there any way can use more than 50% of cpu power.

I've inherited a lot of custom made software for an office, and, while managing it, I've found it performs differently from machine to machine.I mean, some controls get painted in weird ways in some machines but well in another, or just work differently, like in some machines clicking something selects it, and in the next machine clicking the same thing makes it editable.I suspect, o course, of the myriad of DLL the software loads

I 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.

My site has been running fine for sometime now until recently I see in the event viewer a null reference exception in the DNN core:
DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.GetStatus() in
F:BuildsMaintenanceWorkingDirectoryLibraryCommonGlobals.vb:line
1125 at DotNetNuke.Common.Initialize.InitializeApp(HttpApplication
app) in
[code]....
the line 1125 is:
_Status = UpgradeStatus.None
Which is a property of the Globals class and an Enum Also when this happens it doesnt just do it once then sort its self it does it roughly every minute for an hour or so.I made sure all dataprovider.instances are either in a using or a try catch finally or self closing(if the reader is not used)?

How 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.

Somehow the reference to System.Core got removed from one of my projects, which I think is causing some issues. If I try to re-add it to my references I get a message saying "A reference to 'System.Core' could not be added. This component is already automatically referenced by the build system". I think I need this reference because it is there when I start a new project by default

I 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?

I 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?

After 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.

I'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

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.

When my application loads in Visual Studio 2010 I see this warning. Everything runs ok in it as far as I'm aware but I'm completely ignorant in this area. Could that cause me a problem and is there a way to replace that component? There is also the other warning you see in the screenshot.
Quote:Warning1Namespace or type specified in the project-level Imports 'System.Linq' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases.
I did a search for the entire solution and it didn't turn up any Sysem.Linq anywhere. I looked at every Imports statement in my project and I don't have any Imports System.Linq anywhere unless it's somewhere where Visual Studio's quick find search doesn't see it.

I'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

When I started to install the application to computers at the office, I realized that, in some machines, application doesn�t work properly. Although it worked for 15 computers perfectly, for 3 computers following error code is displayed:
