Performance issue on Windows 8

• Performance issues with Windows Server 2008 host

  Hi all

  If I use a Windows Server 2008 host on my ESXi 4 installation.  I've recently upgraded to version 4 and had previously experienced similar problems and 3.5.  I also improved the hardware in the virtual computer to version 7 on all my guest OS.  The host in question is a file server.  Essentially what happens is sometimes that if a user opens a document (for most of the audio and/or video documents), the media file will take a minute or two to load then jump during playback.  If it's something like a file PDF/Word/Excel, the respective program crashes when the file loads or changes are saved, taking about a minute to respond to the user to enter again.  This problem is also very sparadic.  I even had this problem occurs when I'm the only user accessing the file server.  The specification of my VMware host is 3.2 GHz Xeon dual processor and 7 GB of RAM.  Two data warehouses are hosted on internal SATA hard drives.  ESXi is on the build 219382.  VMware tools is installed and update on all guest OS so far.  With regard to the use of the resources on the computer host, the memory usage with all my virtual machines running is almost always around 5.2 GB on the 7 available and the CPU usage is usually around 2 GHz.

  Looking at the logs performance monitor, I noticed an increase in the use of the disc during the shutdowns.  Are there utilities built to test the internal hard drives to find errors?  If this isn't the case, anyone recommend a utility that I can use to do this?

  Other ideas are also welcome.

  As mentioned disk SATA performance is less than ideal, or even acceptable by many people. The SATA drives in a configuration having non-RAID which makes it doubly Yes. If they were at least in a RAID 0, 0 + 1 or 5 configuration you would have best performance among readers (would be loath to 0 though, since there is no parity involved).

  Using the means on board mode SATA drive controller (or not RAID) of the SATA it runs the performance as low as possible.

  I wouldn't have even thought to have a server, or a system, used as a server that does not use RAID functions at least for redundancy. Couple that with discs that aren't going to cause bottlenecks as a standard too. Who used to refer to SCSI drives high speed, but also means using SAS drives these days (since they are replacing older parallel SCSI drives). The most difficult configurations for ESX, are performed on the server class hardware, which has access to a shared storage (which is high performance) on a fast network (Go to our days, or fiber) or a RAID array internally, which will not cause performance problems.

  You can try setting the server configuration, you have now, but that will only take you so far. You will need to the major weak links in the system. A (a major) is the SATA storage as stand-alone drives. The other is a network of 100 MB, which isn't too bad, but is still a performance hit when you share all traffic with these two ports. Moving to a GB switch could help the part of the question, but you will still have to solve problems of disk performance. If there is a decent amount of shared storage attached network where you are, see if they can give you a reasonable amount for the servers you are running on the host computer. Of course, you'll want to also be on the fastest possible network/connection of this storage.

• Several performance issues with Windows 7

  Original title: windows was able to connect to the service event Notification system or look for the automatic updates and the desktop window manager is disabled.

  Help.

  A week back my laptop Hp pavilion (which originally came with Vista but I upgraded to windows 7 Home Premium) has started to give me a message that windows could not automatically check updates. the error it shows is 8024402 C.  I ran Diagnostics from windows, but even that could not solve the problem. Today when I turned on my laptop, the Aero does not work anymore, the troubleshooter says that desktop is disabled. I did the services.msc actions to fix, but in vain. There is also the problem of windows cannot connect to the Service Notification of system events. Stop the system became very slow. It takes almost 5 minutes. It is also impossible to restore to an earlier date, even if I disabled my anti - virus i.e Microsoft Security Essentials. The system recovery option I have before the start does not work. Whenever I choose that, ii goes back to a normal start.

  I don't know what to do. Please help, if there is no solution that requires no formatting my C drive.

  Hi Serge,

• HP Elitebook 8570p - Windows XP USB very slow and the transfer rate performance issues.

  Hello. I was wondering if anyone else knows some performance issues with the HP Elitebook 8570p and Windows XP Pro - SP3.

  I get a VERY slow start, general poor performance (waiting time when opening files and programs).

  I asked to burn in tests that show that everything is good.

  USB transfer rates are VERY slow (tried all ports of a Seagate FreeAgent USB drive, which works fine on other laptops etc.) for example a 30-minute transfer a 7gig single file of the USB HD on the desktop. Only 3 minutes to do the same on another laptop.

  I think there are problems with the drivers, like Windows 7 works very well and does boot from a bootable USB.

  USB transfer rate are also good when starting from a Windows boot environment.

  I installed HP SoftPaq Download Manager, and all the drivers are up to date.

  Hello:

  I think outside of the box here... Select the Intel (r) 7 Series Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller instead.

  If it does not, I raise the white flag.

• Performance issue Windows 7 after installing a game Psychonauts

  Original thread: I defragmented my hard drive, my computer won't start?

  While I was trying to run the game "Psychonauts" steam, which had worked fine on this computer, back on the first installation of Windows 7 I had. In November my OS stopped working completely, and to this day I don't know why. I had Ubuntu since then, and I got Windows 7 back on here again in July, the same person who bought the computer from. Psychonauts worked until I got to the world of Waterloo (a level in the game). Research online told to defragment my hard drive, so I jumped into that knowing exactly what I was doing. Smart, I know. I don't know how long it was, but all of a sudden my computer is turned off and shut right down before arriving at the Toshiba screen. I left for a few hours and came back, turned on, and ran startup repair. He finished after about 20 minutes, said I had to check Microsoft for solutions or something, then it prompted me to shut it down. I did, tried to leave it to the top, it works. Sorry for the long intro. I just want to know if my computer will be correct? Is this what I can run (the irony) to check it out? I had so many problems with it already, I don't know how much more it can survive.

• Performance issues when coming out of sleep

  I recently built a gaming PC. On Christmas day, I finished putting the thing together. It has an Intel i7-4790 CPU running Intel HD Graphics, 8 GB of Corsair Vengeance RAM, an Asus Z97 - A Mobo and a 2 terabyte Seagate HDD. I installed Windows and put everything in place. Then a week later, my MSI GTX 970 arrived in the mail.

  So, I take the thing to sleep and decreases the performance of the whole thing. Videos YouTube stutter, simple as games fight of World of Tanks to run at its usual rate of 60 fps. To avoid this, I simply restart my comp and then it works fine. performance is back to normal.

  A few weeks, Windows gave me a message on one of the Nvidia drivers causing performance issues when you wake up from sleep. I don't think a lot of it and rejected it. I'll try to reinstall all my Nvidia drivers. I uninstall the Intel HD graphics driver a few days ago and has not changed anything. I would appreciate an answer to this problem because I would like to continue to use the "sleep mode" because it consumes less energy and prolongs the life of my case of LED. Thank you!

• Performance issues with Photoshop CS6 64-Bit

  Hello-

  Issue at hand: in recent weeks, I noticed significant problems with performance since the last update PS CS6 using the Adobe Application Manager, from the unexpected shut downs to bring my computer to a crawl (literally, my cursor seems to crawl on my screens). I'm curious to know if anyone knows these issues, or if there is a solution I have not yet tried. Here is a list of actions that give rise to these performance issues - there are probably more that I have not experienced due to my frustration, or were not documented as occurring several times:

  • Opening files - results by hanging processes, takes 3-10 seconds to solve
  • Paste from the Clipboard - results by hanging processes, takes 3-10 seconds to solve
  • Saving files - takes 3-10 seconds to open the dialog box, another 3 to 10 seconds to return to the normal window (saving an image PNG compressed)
  • The eyedropper tool - will crash Photoshop on the desktop, or take 5 to 15 seconds to load
  • Try to navigate any menu - Photoshop crash on the office or take 5 to 15 seconds to load

  Attempts I took to solve this issue, which failed:

  • Uninstalled all fonts I have added since the last update (it's a pain in the *, thanks to be glitch Windows Explorer)
    
  • Uninstall and reinstall the application
  • Edition 32-bit use
  • Change process priority to above normal
  • Confirm the process for all available cores of the processor affinity
  • Change the configuration of the performance of Photoshop options
    • 61% of memory is available to Photoshop to use (8969 MB)
    • History States: 20; Cache levels: 6; Tile cache size: 1024K
    • Records of work: active on the production of SSD, ~ 10GB of available space
    • Dedicated graphics processor is selected (2 x nVidia cards in SLI)

  System information:

  • Intel i7 2600 K @ 3.40 GHz
    
  • 16 GB of RAM Dual Channel DDR3 memory
  • 2 x nVidia GeForce GTS 450 cards, 1 GB each
  • Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
  • Adobe Creative Cloud

  This problem is cost me time that I work every day, and I'm about to start looking for alternatives and cancel my subscription if I can't get this resolved.

  Have you tried to restore your preferences to set the parameters of performance return to their default values and restart Photoshop? http://blogs.Adobe.com/Crawlspace/2012/07/Photoshop-basic-troubleshooting-steps-to-fix-MOS t - issues.html #Preferences

  The server has 16 GB of Ram... way means that, due to limitations of 32-bit on windows only 4 GB of Ram was used and the 12 remaining GB is inactive?
  What is the proper way to tune?

  There are restrictions on how the memory beyond 4 GB can be used by Oracle. As far as I know, the memory is reserved for the buffer cache.

  Not all memory below the 4 GB limit is available for programs. Some of this memory is laid out in memory of the device, such as the video cards, RAID cache on board, etc., and some of the memory Windows is needed to track the objects window, icons, etc. Although it is possible to back up 2 GB per process limit to 3 GB, making Windows limit to use for its own purposes the memory that remains after the memory is drawn to embedded devices, and I think that the Oracle Metalink site does not recommend trying to go up the by the limit process completely to 3 GB. And this low by the process boundary should be reserved for the memory window. Your current value of pga_aggregate_target should be checked, because there is no way that the apparent present value could enter into the available memory.

  I agree with Martin - the best way to take full advantage of the memory is to pass on a 64-bit platform. Most, if not all the memory limit headaches disappear on a 64-bit platform. Of Windows 2003 Standard edition supports up to 32 GB of memory, this could be an option for you. It may or may not be a huge effort, but this means system loss of time (which can be considered a reason to call it a huge effort). You will probably find that the server, if less then three years, will support a 64 bit version of the operating system, but check the 64-bit versions of all the drivers are available and consider replacing hard disks containing the operating system if you need to return to the current operating system.

• Performance issues when you build a large crossroads

  Hello
  
  I have a performance issues when you build a large crossroads.
  
  So here's my situation:
  
  We use Discoverer Plus 10.1.2.45.46c
  Database Oracle 9.2.0.6 on Windows 2003
  OAS 10.1.0.3
  1.5 GB of RAM on my PC
  
  -J' planned a workbook with 1 single worksheet that takes 2 minutes to run. The table generated in the database to store the results from 19 columns and rows to about 225000 (I know that's a lot, but it is what the customer needs).
  
  -When I opened the workbook, it takes about 2 hours to recover the data. The data is retrieved in groups of 1000 and at the beginning, the lines are read much faster than at the end. There are also 15 minutes more to build the crosstab. So overall, it takes 2 hours and 15 minutes for the crosstab display on my screen.
  
  Can someone explain to me:
  -Why does take so long?
  -What can I do to improve the execution other than changing the application or displaying the results in a regular tab? Is there some setting that I can do on the database of the Oracle Application Server?
  
  Note: I have reproduced the worksheet in a simple tab and demand it. The table generated in the DB to store the results is the same and it takes only 2-3 minutes to open this spreadsheet and extract all lines.
  
  
  Thank you!
  
  Mary

  Hi Mary
  If you have 225 000 lines in your basic spreadsheet, then it will take a lot of time to produce a crosstab. The reason is that Finder can not calculate how many buckets he needs until he has read all the data. I can almost guarantee that with 225 000 lines to read and manipulate that you are short of memory.

  You might be better suited someone create and populate a table with the results you need rather than try to get the discoverer to calculate values in crosstab on the fly. If the final result of the crosstab is a few lines of aggregated data, then this is what is right for your table. The advantage of using a table and a few SQL (or PL/SQL) is that you will not be using your local computer during the aggregation / sorting phase. Don't forget a crosstab also sort based on the values in the left columns, the columns you have aggregations (buckets) you will have and most necessary sort. Using a table, you can index or even partition the results that will make for a much faster recovery.

  As a tip, recommend Oracle, confirmed by myself during the exhaustive tests, no do not build large paintings to double entry due to the performance of touch that you will have. The tables are much more efficient because you can pull back x lines at once. You can't do that with a crosstab and all values must be read before that whatever it is is displayed.

  Does that help?

• Anyone know of any compatibility issues with Windows 8 and RV series routers?

  I have a small network with a laptop computer, Windows 8, Windows XP desktop computer and a network MyBookLiveDuo storage device. I have sharing enabled between these devices. Everything worked well on a network switch. I replaced the switch with the RV110W VPN Firewall Router to add better security to my network before I have expand it. Since then, I have a laptop Windows 8 intermittent connectivity while the connectivity of the XP desktop computer shows no problem.

  On the laptop Windows 8 I ran network troubleshooting, and he complained that two devices on the network are (NAT) network address translation and the symptoms he describes is what I see. Problem is that I don't have a network Analyzer to look at the network in more depth. I looked online for the RV110W documentation and if NAT is listed as one of the characteristics, there is no discussion in the documentation on how to manage this feature in the router.

  I can connect to the Windows 8 laptop from Office XP and access shared content. I can connect to the Duo since Office XP without difficulty. However, except when they reappear periodically under the heading of my network in Explorer on the laptop Windows 8, I can't access the Office XP or the Duo of the laptop Windows 8. Curiously, however, I have a part of the Duo mapped as a network drive on the laptop Windows 8 and I can access it even when everything else has gone. Also, the interface of management for the Duo appears on the laptop Windows 8 and I can access the Duo to manage. Only, I can't access the shares on the Duo. Then all of a sudden they reappear under network in the file Explorer and I can then access. I think it must have to do with NAT, but I can't find anything out about it.

  If it's something I can turn on the router long enough to see if the problem goes away I would like to try, but I can't find it in the documentation, and I can't find it when I look aroiund in the management interface.

  The fact that I am not having the form of the XP desktop computer problem makes me think that a compatibility issue with Windows 8. Does anyone know if Windows 8 did anything with NAT? I try to get help from Microsoft Technical Support, but their level 1 tech told me to call Tech Support Pro when they open later this morning. Support cat Cisco won't open until Monday at 09:00.

  Also, throughout this connection problem Internet from the laptop through the router is never interrupted. It's strictly connectivity with other devices on the internal network that comes and goes.

  Hi Gregg,

  NAT must not play unless your applications on the internet. The "port Internet" or "WAN port" is a NAT port that converts your public IP address from ISP to your LAN subnet addresses. NAT allows multiple computers on a network to use 1 public IP address.

  If your devices are connected to the Ether "LAN ports" they are not affected by NAT unless they are Web applications. 4 'LAN ports"are 2 layer switch ports. This means that all local requests are forwarded by the switch ports.

  This device did replace exactly? The XP computers, DUET and window 8, make these products using the static IP address or you allow the RV110 to assign an IP address automatically? What IP address you are using on the LAN of the RV110?

• Smartphone blackBerry Storm performance issues (and suggestions)

  I want to start and say that I don't like my phone.  When it works (which is most of the time), it works fine.

  But there are certainly problems of software.  As a software engineer, the OS has some memory serious management problems.  This seems to cause most of the problems I'm having with the phone.  I'm running the latest Verizon S/W (v4.7.0.148).

  Problem #1:

  I am a paranoid person.  There are a lot of personal information on my phone, I have currently international calls helped that I need this feature.  So to protect me my phone is locked when it is the case or after a period of inactivity time.  It is a good practice.  Part of the draw to the fate of the Blackberry is the security that you can configure on the device (I'm not paranoid enough to allow all the protections of encryption - yet).  Problem of the storm is that it can take 1 to 5 minutes to get the phone unlocked when unholstering.  It is not an exaggeration.  As the performance of the memory gets worse, time takes more time.  If I had to make an emergency call, it could be the difference between life and death.  5 minutes is a long time to wait to call 911.  This must be corrected!

  Problem #2:

  The phone must be "reset" once a day to remember "lost."  It is just poor programming.  I don't know if this problem of BB OS or Apps I'm running, but in both cases, this isn't fair.  After the reboot if I go to the display of memory under options I could have about 3-5 MB of free memory.  After a few hours of use, this will almost always '0 '.  I installed MemoryUp Pro, which seems to have extended the period of time between the battery grips, but I still don't think we should ask all owners of BB Storm to pull there battery once a day.  The other answer I get is "do not run so many Apps.  I get all my applications when finished.  Are the only ones that I continue to turn: Blackberry Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk and Google Maps (Latitude).  Other applications running, you can't get out (phone, browser).  I tried doesn't work is not the 'optional' tricks and performance has not really much better.

  Problem #3:

  Missed calls.  This is probably related to problems of memory above, but if the storm can be used as a phone, then I should buy something else.  Although the occurrence of this problem has gone down because I installed MemoryUp Pro and perform the reset once a day, sometimes still about 1 to 5 times.  It takes so long for the phone to 'wake up' when a call comes in (especially if it is holstered), at the time where I hit "Answer", a call has been Messaging voice or even worse, the phone doesn't ring at all.  All I get is a notification of appeal lacks the 'unknown number '.

  Problem #4:

  Battery performance could be improved.  The battery that comes with the storm has about 24 hours on 24 with the Radio and Bluetooth.  Really, this isn't a problem if you know it.  I solved the problem by buying a 2700 mAh battery for extended life of BoxWave I use when traveling.  Makes the storm bit bulky, it will give me 2-3 days of life.  I don't know how this could be improved if not

  I hope that the developers of RIM are trying to solve some of these performance issues.  Certain tasks should be a higher priority as they seem to have (like phone & Unlock).

  Microsoft Money 2005 issue on windows 8.

  I have recently installed windows 8 on my laptop, but after reinstalling MS money 2005 seems to me impossible to restore data.

  I think that the problem might be that while my original Money 2005 had been updated to version 14.0.120.1105 now that I reinstalled the program, it is the original version 14.0.120.730.

  I am aware that Microsoft has officially stopped support for MS 2005. However as I live in England where no later version is available a sale is too much to ask that Microsoft makes updates available to allow a work produced by another MS product Ms
