optimization - WPF Application in POS terminals -

-

im working on application pos terminals specification one:

cpu support     intel pineview d525 duo core, 1.8g, l2 1m fsb667/800mhz chipset     cpu integrated graphic + ich8m system memory   1 x ddr3 so-dimm socket 2gb graphic memory  intel gma 3150 share system memory 256mb

they dont have active cooling, , when works on 5-7 hours (with wpf app still running), hot , work slow - example relogginng user in system (with ado connection, , select user name = entered string) sometime takes 2 minutes. here question - possible somehow optimize wpf application (for example turn function off)? checked cpu usage ~25%, application doesnt take of ram memory. maybe there problem graphic card? bad thing that, pos after 5-7 hours shows on sensor 100*c (+ -), , becouse of work slow (even opening computer etc.).

it possible tune application low power there no magic switch it.

you need remove effects make simple possible. i'd guess these in order, might have compare cpu usage on several runs

  • remove animation, requires constant recalculation of pixels show
  • remove opacity, gpu has calculate shown through it
  • remove gradients, need every colour calculating
  • use single full screen window, avoiding overlapping drops calculation of areas should clipped or not.
  • and try , stick square shapes requires simplest resolution of areas

if sounds remarkably new windows 8 apps, that's because win8 apps have able run on low power tablets too.

also in backend, might cache data , avoid having keep connecting server.

it can in xml or text format. how in general grep block of text in perl? <track type="ws"> <range> <rangestart>0</rangestart> <rangeend>146.912</rangeend> <locationindex>0</locationindex> <propertyindex>0</propertyindex> </range> </track> <track type="ps" id="1"> <range> <rangestart>0</rangestart> <rangeend>146.912</rangeend> <locationindex>1</locationindex> <propertyindex>1</propertyindex> </range> </track> i want grep type="ps" , till </range> . one solution open file, read line line , match block. open(fh, "file.txt"); foreach $line (<fh>) { if ($line =~ m/type="cc"(.*?)<\/range>/) { print $1; } } but there more optimal solution without reading file line l

Image
if set mycoolbar.fixedorder true,only grip on first band hidden. well,if use delphi 7 create vcl forms application,then put coolbar on , create 3 coolbans hold other controls,only grip , top coolbands can hidden setting mycoolbar.fixedorder:=true. i've uploaded picture make things clear. you got fixedorder property wrong. fixed property not allow bands rearranged if set true . setting property of coolbar true keep user changing bands order @ runtime, user can still move , resize bands. can give advice can do, actual solution problem, well, have wait answer. my advice use 3 coolbars in row , setting "fixedorder" property true , bandborderstyle bsnone . way grip hidden on of them. about property, it's not bug of ide, actual preference of property.

javascript - Animating array of divs; only the final element is modified -

this baffling me @ moment. i'm experienced programmer looking throw bit of surprise fiancee on countdown page our wedding. desired effect simulated confetti falling behind main page. setup follows: i have array of divs in javascript. each div absolutely positioned on page. have interval set updates every 50 or milliseconds. on each tick, run loop on array of divs, , calculations , update positions. problem problem having, however, though can see divs created, stored array, , modified (in case, each has slight randomized rotation) during initialization phase, once tick update position starts, div stored in whatever last slot of array gets position updated. tried hard-coding each div index testing purposes, strictly last element update position. upon printing current "left" , "top" style values each div before , after calculations shows value has been changed, no visible change noticeable. here's basic code: javascript var container;
