Performance Q...

My development environment is ASP.Net with VB and .Net Framework 1.1. All my
browsers are IE5+.
I am injecting client validations codes like if the numbers of characters
are n set the focus to next text box, covert all the lower case to upper
case letter etc. I got like 20 textboxes which has client side injected
code. Will it be a performance issue?

Every instruction you write is a performance issue.

I don't think so. We have a very extensive clien-side validation and get
adequate performance (less than 1 second response to client-side actions).

Performance Testing -WAS

Hi

I am trying to test an ASP .NET application using Microsoft test tool WAS.

There is an option called client as part of the WAS tool. The documentation says that I need to give the ip address of the client machines from which the testing will be done..

Cant I just use one client machine and test my application and simulate cuoncurrent users for a single machine itself?

Thanks
KalpaFor realistic performance testing, it's also recommended that you run the stress testing tool from a separate machine other than the Web server. The actual request generator can be fairly resource intensive while generating the Web requests and this overhead can affect performance of the Web site under max loads. However, even though the documentation states two machines are a requirement you can certainly run WAS on the same machine as the Web server, but don't expect 100% accurate results especially when you're testing at the top end load for the hardware you're running on.

Performance tuning ASP.NET applications

I have an ASP.NET application where one of the pages has a Save button to allow the user to save their work. So I have a client running the application in Internet Explorer, a separate IIS server running IIS version 6 and a separate SQL Server 2000 server where the data is saved in a database.
Some users are experiencing major performance issues during the save process. I'm looking for any pointers to articles on the web which can help me analyze/determine where the bottlenecks are in the entire process, i.e. is it a client problem, IIS problem or SQL Server problem.
Any help on how to do this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!

Permission Problem writing to Disk in Asp.NET application

Here's what I need to do:
Due to a bug in Crystal Reports ExportToStream() method I can't stream a
Crystal Reports directly to the client as PDF and I must must use the
Export() and put the the PDF on disk first and stream to the client. That's
just how it is.

Question:
So I need to let the aspx user have write permissions to disk.. NOT GOOD.
How do I solve this? Can I somehow write the PDF to disk in another thread
with other writes? OR are ther other ways around this?

best regards
/Lars NetzelLars

Note : The code below is stripped from a asp.net project using a web
service. This project would relay a binary file from an internal web server
where Crystal reports is installed to an external web server. You will still
need write permissions for the directory you want to save to

You could try this, I hope It helps

Stream fs =
rep.ExportToStream(CrystalDecisions.Shared.ExportF ormatType.PortableDocFormat);
byte[] binaryfile = StreamToBinary(fs);
string docLocation = Server.MapPath(null) + @."\Docs\";
SaveFileToServer(binaryfile,docLocation,"my.pdf",DateTime.Now);
Response.Redirect("Docs/"+"my.pdf");

public void SaveFileToServer(byte[] binaryFile, string docPath, string
docName, DateTime fileModifiedDate)
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(docPath);
MemoryStream m = new MemoryStream(binaryFile);
FileStream f = new FileStream(docPath+docName,FileMode.Create);
m.WriteTo(f);
f.Close();
m.Close();
File.SetLastWriteTime(docPath+docName,fileModified Date);
}

public byte[] StreamToBinary(Stream fs)
{
Int32 i = Convert.ToInt32(fs.Length);
byte[] b = new byte[fs.Length];
fs.Read(b,0,i);
fs.Close();
}

Thanks but I can't ExportToStream due to a bug with record and
groupselections in the Crystal Reports Engine. so I can't use that code.

I need to write to disk with other permisisons than the ASPNET user

Permission script

I'm going to deploy an web app on a client's server. It requires write
permission for the ASP.NET account for one of the folders.
c:/inetpub/wwwroot/mysite/logs
Is there a script that can automatically do that? in VBS? or BAT? or NET?
Assume my client has admin permission on the server.
Thanks,
AaronYou could write a bat file to use CACLS.EXE from the command line.

Permissions needed to run aspnet_regiis.exe -c

Well, obviously I am. When you join a server to a domain, the Domain Admin
group is automatically added to the local Administrators group. I verified
it to be sure that nothing had changed. I think it's really a permissions
problem somewhere.

persistance of Classes

I'm A client server developer by trade and i'm moving my skill set slowly
over to ASP.NET.
One question, I have a class, that i populate on a postback... I want to
keep this data persistant though other multiple postbacks.
What is the desired mechanism to use this.
I'm using the following code but not sure if this is the appropriate
solution to the problem
Private PatientDetails As Patient
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
If ViewState("Patient") Is Nothing Then
PatientDetails = New Patient
viewstate.Add("Patient", PatientDetails)
Else
PatientDetails = New Patient
PatientDetails = viewstate("Patient")
End If
Private Function SearchPAS() As Boolean ' called by a button clik
PASmsg = PatientDetails.GetPASDetails(cSite, byCriteria, lbText.Text)
'which fills all the property fields
viewstate("Patient") = PatientDetails
end functionAdtmitedly this doesn't work yet because its not serialized, i'm also
working on how to do that as well

As long as your Patient class is serializable (which it apparently is), and
the extra HTML it adds to the document doesn't slow the response time down
too much, it's an excellent way to accomplish your goal. :)

Here is an excellent article/blog on making the viewstate serialization the
most efficient for custom classes. In a nutshell, viewstate does a really
good job serializing a specific set of objects, for anything else, your
better off to create a custom type converter.

Hi,
You have several methods of persisting data between postbacks:
1. Using the view state - The entire viewstate data is serialized to a
hidden input field in the output html and then deserialized at postback.
This is good if your object does not contain large amounts of data
(serialization to the output html = large html output = slow loading for the
user).
2. Using the session state. This way the data is saved on the server between
postbacks (there are 3 different session state configurations you should
read about in MSDN).

persistance of Classes

I'm A client server developer by trade and i'm moving my skill set slowly
over to ASP.NET.

One question, I have a class, that i populate on a postback... I want to
keep this data persistant though other multiple postbacks.

What is the desired mechanism to use this.

I'm using the following code but not sure if this is the appropriate
solution to the problem

Private PatientDetails As Patient

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

If ViewState("Patient") Is Nothing Then

PatientDetails = New Patient

viewstate.Add("Patient", PatientDetails)

Else

PatientDetails = New Patient

PatientDetails = viewstate("Patient")

End If

Private Function SearchPAS() As Boolean ' called by a button clik

PASmsg = PatientDetails.GetPASDetails(cSite, byCriteria, lbText.Text)
'which fills all the property fields

viewstate("Patient") = PatientDetails

end functionAdtmitedly this doesn't work yet because its not serialized, i'm also
working on how to do that as well

As long as your Patient class is serializable (which it apparently is), and
the extra HTML it adds to the document doesn't slow the response time down
too much, it's an excellent way to accomplish your goal. :)
