How to Improve Linq Query Performance by using Parallel/ PLinq

How to Improve Linq Query Performance by using Parallel/ PLinq

I want to highlight the disadvantage first, because if you know the disadvantage you can make a choice if required in your project or not.

Don't use if you have a Single core or dual core CPU's. I found that depending on the complexity of For loop  the CPU performance reaches more than 70-80%  (Not talking about the simple For loop). So if you want to use the parallelism for complex loop make sure you have more than  2 CPU's
Parallelization sometimes cause a  PLinq query to run slower than Linq to object equivalent. Basically it said like queries with few data source elements and fast user delegates are reluctant to speed up much.

Parallel Linq is the parallel implementation of Linq. Parallel Linq implementation on loops provide better performance compared to sequential  loop. Parallel Linq also works like Linq queries operate on any in-memory IEnumerale(of T) data source. PLINQ make full use of all processors on the system. The parallelism is achieved by diving the data source into multiple segments and working each segment on different worker threads on multiple processor.

MaxDegreeOfParallelism  - Upper limit of number of processors irrespective of number of cores(We can only specify the maximum )limit.. So even if also if we don't use the CPU , no extra task will run in parallel. 

Implementation 

List testModelList=GetTestModelList();

Parallel.ForEach(testModelList,
                new ParallelOptions { MaxDegreeOfParallelism = 5 },
                tm=>; {//Do Operations
                  
              });

Bootstrap Server Side Sorting Cont....

On my previous post   I had already mentioned about how to apply the sort to Bootstrap paginated tables. By making the following changes server side sorting can be achieved along with pagination. On Filter Model self.sortBy = ko.observable( 'Id' );//Default sort Column self.sortAscending = ko.observable( false ); self.iconType = ko.observable( 'glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-down' ); // Icon to appear near Column No Changes to Adarsh Log Model or Adarsh Log list Model Knockout.js View Model for Adarsh Log Changes Add the sortTable  method to it self.sortTable = function (viewModel, e) {             var columClicked = $(e.target).attr( "data-column" )             var sortAscending = (self.filter().sortAscending() === true ) ? false : true ;             self.filter().sortAscendi...

Emergence and Creative Confidence

I started my career on 1st of September 2008 as a software developer at Manchester. Some people in my personal life might know about it. I like to say, that day as the day I found an aura in my life, transformation from the worst possible situation into a new beginning in a matter of 1 hour. The week before, I got an interview confirmation from that company and I was not at all excited about it because I know it is going to be the final interview in UK if I am unsuccessful. I was in that mental state because I was not successful for past 12 such occurrences and not expecting anything different. This shows I was not a brilliant person but had a strong passion and hardworking nature to achieve success. I passed my masters on Sep 2007 and after that, I decided to work only in software development, and lots of people including my parents told this as a worst possible decision. To be precise, they have no issues in choosing software development, but on my adamant decision only software de...

Single page application (SPA) using ext.js

what is spa? Single page application are applications that fit in one page with rich and fluid user experiences like a desktop based applications. Why is SPA? All web based elements (html, CSS,javascript) are downloaded from the server on single page load and avoid the continuous page post back. i can explain what this mean. Suppose your web application is made of certain flow and it consists of 5 different pages. Each page need to get data from the user and save before moving to the next page. So when we navigate from one page to other it need to make a round trip to server to store the data in one page and get the data for the next page to display. but in spa we can avoid the continuous post backs. The whole page will not post back any time other than the first load. But it communicate to the server dynamically behind the scene and can achieve the same functionality. Spa using ext.js designing a SPA using ext.js is a challenging task if you are unaware about the ext.js ...
