Database Performance Issue

$

Hi

I want to achieve 20k concurrent user load Database server but when I do load performance with 5k user database server gives 100% CPU utilization and application server is working fine

I check process counter in perfmon : user time(sqlserver),process time(sqlserver) is always 100%

I have 56 GB RAM, INTEL XEON E7 4870 2.4 GHz processor , 64 Bit Windows Server 2008 r2 OS

So how can I achieve 20k concurrent user load on database server? And Why database server CPU utilization is 100 percent for only 5k concurrent user?


How to add my driver's custom WPP provider to a WPR profile

I have a driver configured with WPP tracing.

I'm interested in seeing my driver's WPP tracing messages appearing in the WPA timeline, alongside the rest of the system events.

I tried adding the WPP provider guid as an EventProvider to a custom profile, but it didn't work.

Would appreciate help.

Continuous "Not Responding" error messages and freezes that result in no alternative but hard reset...`

I have researched this a little but am unclear on:

1) Potential cause

2) Possible solutions

I have an Asus Notebook (F200CA) that is really quite new and am currently running Windows 8.1. I use Firefox as my main browser and Thunderbird as my email client (both of which I used prior to upgrading to 8.1, with no real problems).  I am concerned about the frequency with which I have to hard reset my notebook (it is on almost a daily basis, sometimes more than once!).  Anyone have any thoughts?  As I said, I kind of scanned the posts from others but wasn't sure that there was really an answer in there anywhere...

Thanks in advance!

System Performance

My system Samsung 5i, operating on windows 8.1 is running very slow and dragging.  When checked in the task manager the Disk Usage most of the time shows 100%. Will there be any use if I format C drive and if I do so will I be able to get back my windows 8.1 which is provided along by the OEM (Samsung)of the machine?

An answer to this query will be much appreciated.

Thank you - Sam

Can anyone tell me how to find the Latency(time it takes to execute the above CSWITCH) of the above context switch.

Also which field in xperf summary table gives the equivalent Latency of CSWITCH so that I can verify my results.

hello guys, how to set or run WPA to check all the active applications currently running on the computer?

Or is it possible to run WPA to check a particular application?

Provider mapping for old Kernel groups?

$
0
0

I just started getting familiar with the old xperf and the new WPR/WPA toolkit,  couple of questions

1) I was interested in recording interrupt/DPC type traces similar to the older 'latency' kernel group.  I don't understand which Provider captures these same metrics (kernel interrupt, DPC timing) ?

2) When looking at Kernel Interrupts, I am interested in observing which CPU interrupts are being serviced on.  (I am playing with the affinity policy tool and fibre channel interrupts).   is there a Provider that would help me drill down Interrupts by CPU?

Thanks!

ERROR: An event session cannot be started without any providers?

I was trying to get the storport provider that Yong posted and I get the above error despite checking to ensure the log mode is FILE.  

Not sure if the provider names are case sensitive, changing the provider name from Microsoft-Windows-Storport to Microsoft-Windows-StorPort didn't help either. 

Suggestions? 

Thanks!

Recently, the laptop C partition is running out of space. A low disk space notice has stopped me installing new programs many times. The laptop performance also becomes really slow. I have already deleted all useless files, folders, programs and more. But, this low disk space problem still exists. What’s going on there? Do you have any idea for me to fix this? Thanks in advance!

So my laptop which runs windows 7 premium has been experiencing a lot of memory issues. I decided to investigate it and I found that a process named "Unknown" (-1) seems to be taking quite a lot of my memory. Any idea how to figure out what this is and prevent it?

If you guys know anything about it that would be great. I've been trying to investigate this performance drop for a while now and this is kind of a dead end. ( I have so many images/links to help figure it out but "Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account. )
