performancecounter

Hi all

I would like to use Performance Monitor to check the CPU consumption of my process. Right now I am working on a MultiCore machine.

If I have a look at my process in TASK MANAGER I see that my process consumes 20% of CPU. If I start performance monitor, I select Process->->% Processor Time I see values peaking up and over 100%. Do you know why and how to get the real measure?

I also looked at the CPU consumption for all of my 4 cores, but I don't know exactly how to attribute consumption to my process.

If you can suggest a link or url about how to read CPU usage I would really appreciate! Thanks a lot! AFG

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy.
