Several performance issues with Windows 7

• 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.

  and then at the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f r, then press the Enter key.

  If you are asked to plan the volume to check the next time that the system/PC reboots,
  Enter: y

  Now, restart the PC.

  If you know the manufacturing of your hard drive you can also download their diagnostic software.

• 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?

• Windows Vista and especially performance issue with M/B AsRock P4i45GV R5.0

  4 years ago, I bought AsRock P4i45GV-M/B 5.0 R, with Intel Pentium 4 processor with 2.40 GHz, 1 MB of L2 Cache.

  I have installed Windows Vista, since Intel 82845 G onbaord graphics does not support Windows Vista, I havd to installed an add - in AGP card. I installed NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 and I also tried NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200, but my system does not at all. It's really slow.

  Is this due to add - on card AGP?

  I installed 2 GB of RAM, which is the maximum amount of RAM my M/B can support.

  I also tried with Windows 7, but it works worse than Windows Vista on my PC.

  Please, help me to boost the performance of my system. I don't want to go back to Windows XP.

  The problem may be because my M/B does not support Windows Vista and higher?

  The processor and the graphcis card are old and not the fastest.

  Buy a new basic system of AMD (Athlon II X 2/X 3, at least 2 GB of DDR3 RAM, a mainbaord with AMD 880 G chipset (integrated graphics card), you can use the old HARD disc), it is not too expensive, but gives you a boost huge performance.

• 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

• Performance issue with the submodels

  Hello
  I'm working on submodels and my requirement needs only one main calling location several specific submodels (a location may have several own submodels, e.g.: US_subtemp1, US_subtemp2, US_subtemp3... in the same way to other locations).
  I would like to know is there any performance issue associated with calls in the submodels and on how this decrease in performance can be minimized.
  
  Kind regards
  Arvind

  Use of the submodels with components imported alongside repeated sections in the main template layout is not recommended when the number of repetitions is high and the size of the document is large. BI Publisher optimize the xsl transformation internally, but it is not applied to xsl inside models of void.
  One of the extreme scenario is a main model set only a repeating section that matter a submodel of the header and the footer.
  A body of the repeating section is defined in the subtemplate. In this scenario, there is no xsl optimization made and you can easily see some differences in performance.

  As long as you don't need to repeat the layouts of submodels, you don't need to worry about this performance issue.

  Thank you

• Performance issue with an external HARD drive

  Hi all

  I wish you all a happy new year and good luck for 2008

  I have a performance problem with a HARD drive: 3.5 inch USB 2.0 HDD with Alu - case. (320 GB of capacity)
  The average copy files is about 470 KB/Sec.

  When I connect the external HARD drive to my laptop (for any USB port), I have a ToolTip message: "this device can perform faster - this USB device can be faster if you connect it to a USB 2.0 port. I can assure you, my computer laptop USB USB 2.0 port.

  I conneted my drive external HARD to both PC and I have the same ToolTip message: "this device can perform faster - this USB device can be faster if you connect it to a USB 2.0 port.

  Is this problem known to you?
  I think the problem is in the firmware of the external HARD drive.

  + Other ++ information: +.

  + OS: Windows XP Pro SP2 +.
  + USB port all tested are USB 2.0 +.
  + HARD drive divided on 4 logical drives.
  + Antivirus: Symantec. I had test with and without my antivirus. +
  + I have had this problem for 3 weeks and before that I had no problem. +

  Thanks in advance & best regards,

  Hello

  I got the same info after the connection of a digital camera.
  The same message appears in the taskbar. I simply disbled this message;
  In Device Manager, click the USB host controller, click the Advanced tab, and then check the box at the bottom of the window that says don't tell me about USB errors.

  You must do this for each USB controller listed under USB in Device Manager, so that the error message no no matter which controller is used.

  I goggled for this + this device can perform faster + and got many successes. It seems that this is not a hardware problem, but simply a problem of operating system software

  That s all I can suggest

• Performance issue on Windows 8

  Live here on Maui should be enough to be happy, but a guy from Microsoft says that we are all hooked up somehow connected, can't really escape.

  The day began with a witch beautiful Sunrise I see coming over the ocean. Check or try to see how my girls on FB. gave me a blank screen = without rebooting just to biggie.  Time and again +++ more white drawing all the time = crash.

  Then I got a call the voice say let me you get our technician, he's here to help = how great is that! Michael stuart and I talked on and it's gone deep into my computer of course I let him there to address == so nice, he wanted to be friends with me on Facebook, send me a request, rang me is Microsoft showing me on event viewer, the Trojan horse how I was infected.

  What a nice guy until he said I have to restore, rebuild, you know get rid you of the infection, showed me the critical error and warning I had buried in some files. $ 199.99 payment would my computer lightning don't speed no problem at all good.

  Something smells like fish, works it in Texas for being there when I need Microsoft. I mean it's like triple a times ten. Or the police for help in need.

  So I called Microsoft to see if they know Micheal Stuart / they're not watching my computer to see if I have a problem, this would be too good.

  Right now my event viewer tells me many messages critical of the warnings and error galore. Running slow buffering on you tube defragment do not make good cleanup of the same files.  Once you have the Trojan horse inside it is difficult to hunt out. Does not mute called my Bank and changed the passwords.

  To check on my computer with Microsoft is $ 99 for a crack or 149.99 for one year of protection and get rid of everything that isn't good.

  So should I do? Or go across the island to a computer store and see what they can do?  Or take the hammer is smash! And buy a surface or what is called I now the top of the Tower from apple air == so please help!

  Take the hammer.

  Buy a tablet of surface.

  Buy Apple.

  Or pay the men?

  I send a big Mahalo to all response. Love you all except Hackers!

• Performance issues with large number of nodes

  I am creating an application to display graphics (large), for example:

  

  But I ran into some performance issues, even for a relatively small number of nodes in the scene graph (+-2000 in the picture above). The graph is built, step by step, adding circles and paths to a StackPane. Circles and paths can be semi-transparant. For a small number of nodes, I get a solid 60 FPS, but this decreases over time to about 5 frames per second. As soon as I stop adding new nodes, the framerate shoot again up to 60 images per second. The framerate drop even when all the nodes are outside the viewport.

  My questions are:

  * Is Platform.runLater () call to 2000 times a minute too?

  * This might just be a problem with my graphics card? (I have an Intel HD Graphics 3000)
  * JavaFX pulse recorder says such things, are there meaningful information in that I'm missing?

  PULSE: 1287 [163MS:321MS]

  T14 (0 + 0ms): col of CSS

  T14 (0 + 5ms): layout pass

  T14 (6 + 152ms): waiting for the minutes of the previous

  T14 (158 + 0ms): copy the State for graphic rendering

  T12 (159 + 0ms): dirty opts calculated

  T12: Path of the slow form for null

  T12 (159 + 160ms): painted

  T12 (319 + 2ms): Presentable.present

  T12 (321 + 0ms): completed the presentation of painter

  Counters:

  Background image of the region used cached: 14

  NGRegion renderBackgroundShape slow path: 1

  Nodes displayed: 1839

  Nodes visited during rendering: 1840

  Kind regards

  Basically, try some optimization of performance ranging from the simple to the complex.   Each of the changes below may provide you with an increase in performance.  Some will probably increase performance much more that others (depending on where is the real bottleneck).  I would probably start by replace the paths to the lines and reduce the number of Platform.runLater calls (as adding nodes that fall within the viewport can be difficult only).

  > The framerate drop even when all the nodes are outside the viewport.

  Place the nodes in the graph, which fall inside the viewport.

  > Is Platform.runLater () call to 2000 times a minute too?

  Yes, there is no reason to call it more than 60 times a minute when the framerate of JavaFX is capped at 60 frames per second by default.

  > This might just be a problem with my graphics card? (I have an Intel HD Graphics 3000)

  Yes, it's a graphics system relatively low-end.  But, look at the comment of developer below - your CPU and choice of graphic primitives can also affect rendering speed.

  > Adding circles and the paths to a StackPane

  You don't need a StackPane to this, a group is a container easier and probably better.

  > may be semi-transparant

  Remove transparency * may * cause acceleration.

  ----

  You run may be:

  https://JavaFX-JIRA.Kenai.com/browse/RT-20405 : improve the rendering of path performance

  Maybe if you use lines rather than the paths, performance might improve.

  A comment by a developer on this performance tweak application is:

  «It is quite normal for applications that use arbitrary paths (if the node path objects, SVGPath, polyline, or polygon) because these paths are rendered in software.» As card circle, Ellipse, line and Rectangle very primitive forms easily to the operations that can be performed entirely on the GPU, which makes them essentially cheap. There is no need to compare the rendering of a complicated shape for rendering of simple primitives for this reason. »

  ----

  Setting the cache indicators can help, but probably only if you animate nodes.

  ----

  Present level of detail of your graph functionality so a chart with zoom out is not make as many nodes as a part of zoomed in.

  ----

  You run any code important calculation on the JavaFX application thread that could stall it?

  Can make you available a ftom so that others can reproduce your problems?

• English CC only version: compatibility issues with Windows 7 in Italian?

  Hello. When I try to buy the creative cloud all-apps included (taking advantage of the special offer), I wonder if I want the version of all languages or English only.

• S2031: compatibility issues with windows 10

  I have an old Hp S2031 monitor of 3 years. I got a free upgrade to window 10. I received the following question from Microsoft:

  NVIDIA GeForce 6150Se Nforce 430

  Production of the display is not your screen compatible with Windows 10. Check with your support manufacturing.

  Is there a solution?

  The phase indicated in the post "NVIDIA GeForce 6150Se Nforce 430" comes from the graphic chipset motherboard.  If you have a separate graphics card solution, then it might still be OK.  This chipset is quite old by computer standards, so it should not be supported in Windows 10.  I would like to wait a few months, a workaround might appear to increase the demand for this chipset for Windows 10 support.
