My Logos4.0cB7 application just did some more black screen stuff again, as soon as I clicked "Go" on an "All Library" search for "Gold". I got the while "Not Responding" thing that is the subject of a number of other recent posts.
My focus here is to ask whats Windows and/or .NET doing during this time:
1) Is it a memory issue, and the pause is getting some memory pages?
2) Is it a disk I/O thing, and there is no data, so everything hangs until the filesystem wakes?
3) Is it a video-card redraw buffers thing?
4) Is it a .NET Just-In-Time compile of some code thats not in the cache and needs to be built before it runs?
And so on ...
If I knew the answer to some of theses kinds of questions, I could look at attempting to tweak performance aspects of my PC. Or maybe I could know what to monitor or capture performance data.
I remember .NET used to have a thing about pre-compile, Global Assembly Cache, Just-In-Time compiles etc. Is it possible to run some kind of "compile to GAC" process to avoid delays from this aspect? Does Logos4 already do something like this? Does .NET still benefit from these kinds of things?
