Maximizing .NET Performance


Overview

Maximizing .NET Performance will focus on providing developers and architects with information on performance characteristics of various aspects of the .NET Framework. In addition to providing high-level material on achieving software with good performance characteristics, the book aims to educate readers on the design and implementation of the Framework, and to provide the tools and techniques to allow readers to conduct their own investigation into performance problems.The dominant feature of the book will be the systematic analysis of performance relating to key Framework topics, like remoting, garbage collection, and threading. Rather than a 'tips and tricks' approach, the book aims to provide a detailed exploration of each topic, and explore the 'whys' and 'by how much' aspects of performance that are often overlooked.

Reviews

From the reviews: The book covers the .NET Framework in a way that is useful no matter what language you are using. ... Depending on your frame of mind and the type of application you are creating, you will find this book at the very least worthwhile and perhaps essential. It's an interesting read and any reasonably experienced .NET programmer is sure to get something from reading it. Highly recommended. (Harry Fairhead, VSJ-Visual Systems Journal, July/August, 2004)
