Mid Way To Slow Used 7320 Times?
May 28, 2011
im comparing some datas from 2 arraylists and i need to use something like mid because the last 2 chars of the arraylists().tostring are going to be different and i want to exclude them from the check, basically im using something like this
if mid(arraylist1(i).tostring,1,arraylist1(i).tostring.length - 2) = mid(arraylist2(i).tostring,1,arraylist2(i).tostring.length - 2) then
end if how slow is this into a loop that has to do it up to 7320 times? i checked it on my pc and it semms to work just fine, under 0.3 seconds, but the problem is my pc has 3.6ghz dual core 4gb ram on a windows xp.im more worried about other slower pcs, do you think using that comparison is a bad idea to performance?

I've just upgraed from VS2005 to VS2008. On VS2008, I'm getting a very irritatting slow response. I run my Windows code (it will take some few seconds), (well, no complained about this) But when I stop the program execution to go back to code, it will take from 5-20 seconds before I get cursor control (i.e. it hangs for this time). Any fix to this? I have even gone to an extend of re-installing OS (Tried both XpSP3 and Vista Busines), Problem same. Please assist as I'm now begining to be frustrated.

I want to enlarge an image, possibly up to 32 times or 64 times bigger than original dimensions (so that the user can see each pixel) if possible. The following is a simple function that I have to enlarge an image.
Private Function xEnlarge(ByVal Source As Image, ByVal Rate As Double, Optional ByVal Quality As Drawing2D.InterpolationMode = Drawing2D.InterpolationMode.HighQualityBicubic) As Image

I have just started using vb.net and I have a checked list box with times throughout the day shown as
00:00 - 00:14
00:15 - 00:29
00:30 - 00:44
00:45 - 00:59
What I am trying to find is a way to get the current time and find which list item it fits into. What I think I need to do is to first of all get the current time and then go through the list splitting each item into 2 times and seeing if the current time fits. For example: Split the item 00:00 - 00:14 to 00:00 and 00:14 and then check if the current time is more than 00:00:00 but less than 00:14:59 and if so do certain task.how to go about taking each list item and splitting it into 2 separate times so I can check between them?

I make a program to check certain website.
The idea is to do webclient.DownloadStringAsync thingy and then wait till each one is solved. So like multi threading application.
The program itself is a single thread.
Well, when I loop 400 times it takes too long. Every time I press pause the program in debug it stop at this line[code]...

Something happened to my VS2005 setup and now the first time load for F1 can take a full minute to load. I think the last significant thing I did was install an add-in for ESRI ArcExplorer. I uninstalled that add-in but help is stil VERY slow to start.Does anyone recognize the problem and have a simple fix?

Im using VB2010 professional edition and Ms Access 2007 DB. Main form contains a button which accesses database, fetch results in textboxes and update database. But sometimes it takes almost 40seconds to fetch and sometimes it fetches immediately. Couldn't understand any pattern for this. The table in the database contains 8000records and Main form has 3000 lines of code.

We have old VB6 code, and now that Windows 8 is coming along, we are worried that it won't work. So we have to decide what to port it to. VB.net would seem to make sense, but since it compiles to an intermediate level, its not as fast as programs that compile straight to assembly language. Another choice we found was "Power Basic" which is supposed to be much faster that VB.net.
I happen to like various features of VB.net such as the GUI editor, and intellisense and so forth, and so I'm wondering - is there some way to get around the MSIL (intermediate level) factor in slowing the language down?

its' only me, or is VS2010 really so slooow? This taking 50 seconds to open vs2010, 30 seconds to change from an small project to other small project.as a comparation, in the same machine I can open three different vb6 projects, each one in one different vb6 instance and each one takes "only" three to five seconds. of course I can maintain all the three instances opened all the day, sutching from one to other, debugging, changing, even generatin' exe files, without noticeable penalties.machine is Dell Vostro 1700 4 GB, two internal disks, Win Vista business, Intel Core 2 Duo T 7500 2,2 GHz. two years old.

I have a simple code that looks up a text file, reads the line of text, splits the string by semi-colons and then posts the results.
After it has done this, I have created a really simple while loop to waste 10 seconds before going for it again.... here is the code:
Private Sub checkTemps()
While Abort = False

Basically i have designed an app that runs smoothly on my desktop PC (3GHz processor, 2GB RAM, Windows XP Media Centre (SP3)).
When i put the app on my laptop(1.4GHz processor, 448MB RAM, Windows XP Home Edition (SP2)) it runs really slow and is unusable.
I have tried deploying the app and also just copy the whole folder to my laptop and run the apps *.exe from the bin/debug folder, but it has the same results.
I have tested it on higher spec machines with 2GB RAM and they also replicate the slowness, so i'm at a loss as to why it behaves 100% on my desktop PC, where i have Visual Studio installed but not on any other machine.
My question is if little differences like operating system, RAM, service packs, VS installation, etc, make apps run differently on different machines.

I have designed an application just like it is an Excel table. By changing each textbox the application runs a huge amount of vb code and it takes time.
E.g. you want to enter a three digits number it takes from two to four and sometimes more seconds for ech digit to enter. That`s really embarrassing.

I've got a vb.net 2005 form that calls a stored proc to load a combobox with eligible sales reps. There are approximately 40k sales reps available...I know that's a lot, but that's what I'm dealing with. I'm trying to figure out why it's taking this form 15 seconds to load.
Here's my code:

I'm writing a application that need to execute a certain code several times a second. At first, i wrote a Function and used it. But it was too slow... So, using Stopwatch i started measuring the performance of my code. And apparently it was from the funcion call. So i wrote a example code, just a simple loop. And using the Stopwatch it took 4E-6 = 0.000004 seconds. Then i copy and paste the loop code, into a function and made a call to the function. it took 0.03 seconds. It was 7500 times slower with a function call. Why using a function call can be so much slower?[code]...

I'm using Visual Studio 2010 Pro on a Windows 7 PC, to build simple VB Windows Form Applications (I've just started learning VB). Lately when I try to debug my applications, it takes unusually long. For example, an application with just a blank form and nothing else will take about a minute to build, and then it will sit for another minute or two until the app window pops up. It didn't use to do this!

I have tried using the My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile method but unfortunately it is slow.
Executing the simple command below takes ~5-10 secs, which I would say is a lot longer than expected for downloading a 9 kb file.`My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile("http://www.google.dk", "j: emp est.html")

I have a program that after clicking start, starts looping. Most of the code is in the "start" button event, and the timer keeps calling it every second. Basically the program reads a line from the serial port, opens and reads a couple text files, opens and writes a couple text files, sends a string out the serial port, then repeats.
After about 24 hours of running, the computer and this program get very slow. Screen updates get really slow and clicking on buttons takes the program several seconds to respond. The actual loop itself slows too, I think, but not much. Restart the program and everything is happy again. What would be the best way to go about troubleshooting this? [Code]
