Mixing and Matching .csproj Formats Software .NET Infrastructure The Visual Studio Build Tools 15.x installers do not include all the necessary dependencies to build a solution containing projects using both the classic “Full Framework” .csproj format and the new “VS 2017” .csproj format out of the box.
The Pit of Poor Performance - Part 2 Software .NET Data In the first part of this post, I laid out the problem at hand and the code for some of the more high-level business logic. I left off by mentioning that the calls to the “repository” classes were hiding complexity which resulted in disastrously poor performance. In this post, I’ll dig into those methods and how I ultimately refactored them to increase the performance by over an order of magnitude.
The Pit of Poor Performance - Part 1 Software .NET Data This is a story about some code I recently refactored at work, which resulted in a process that previously took double-digit numbers of hours down to about 20 minutes. I think it’s an interesting case because it was such a dramatic performance increase, and the root cause for the performance problem was something I think software developers run into a lot.
