Salvatore Megna | Slow with windows 10 on Wed, 12 Feb 2020 10:34:53 +0100 Hi, do you have slowness problems with windows 10? All my clients who switch to windows 10 then have slow problems with the program. Virtually every access to the database becomes slow. Thanks | |
Anand Gupta | Re: Slow with windows 10 on Wed, 12 Feb 2020 12:21:32 +0100 No problem of slowness faced in Win10 32 bit and 64 bit DBFNTX both ADS and without. Depends how you are accessing Database. Debugging it may show the problem Regards, Anand Salvatore Megna <smegna@tiscali.it> wrote in message news:5ee5c8a1$1ec82c93$12666c@news.alaska-software.com... >Hi, >do you have slowness problems with windows 10? >All my clients who switch to windows 10 then have slow problems with the >program.

On a newer PC running Windows 10, you probably won't notice. But, on a PC with an older processor-especially if you upgraded to Win-10 from Windows 7 or 8 you may see a noticeable slowdown. If this is the case, get a new CPU. -Itai | |

In followup tests I took Jim's SLE1000.prg which creates 1000 SLE objects and on a spare workstation which had Win 10 1511 ran SLE1000. I then did a number of clean install of Win 10 thru to version 1809 and compared timings... WinVer Build SLE1000 Time Xbase version Version 1511 OS 10586.1540 .90 - 1.0 2.0.1079 Version 1607 OS 14393.0 .81-.94 2.0.1079 Version 1703 OS 15063.0 .86-.91 2.0.1079 Version 1709 OS 16299.15 .76-.84 2.0.1079 Version 1803 OS 17134.1 1.01-1.08 2.0.1079 Version 1803 OS 17134.1 1.02-1.08 2.0.1087 Version 1809 OS 17763.107 1.76-1.85 2.0.1087 I also came across a link... https://www.grc.com/inspectre.htm That discusses the issue and also has a free standing utility for download called InSpectre that gives you info about your particular workstation and also allows you to toggle off & on the software protection for these vulnerabilities. Using this utility you could temporarily turn off the protection and confirm that the slowdown is truly due to this issue. This would also help show the end user that it's not so much a issue with your application. Regards... Jonathan jonathan.leeming@familycentre.org Edmonton, Alberta, Canada | |
Jim Lee | Re: Slow with windows 10 on Fri, 14 Feb 2020 07:50:10 +0100 most Speed Problem have to do with Security so using SMB1 is much slower than SMB2. also Windows Defender does scan your Code if it have a valid "Signature". --- most time under GUI are used for GUI "OutPut" and all virtual Windows are under Control of DWM. but Xbase++ still use GDI32, not GDIplus, and 1 x CPU which is waiting ... Xbase++ v2.x have HtmlLayout as Render-Engine but it will not be much faster when using 1 x CPU --- do you know Dosbox or virtualBox. can you imagen just use VM Engine and MT for GDI & Co ? i did not found a Solution for Xbase++ yet ... but for other xBase Dialect ask more on Pablos Website -> Newsgroup |
