.NET GC developer Maoni Stephens, Performance Architect Vance Morrison and Bing front end developer Mukul Sabharwal join us for a conversation about .NET 4.5 in practice.
We spent some time with the.NET 4.5 team earlier in the year. You can see the series of conversational interviews we did here.
The Bing front end is powered by .NET 4.5 and Windows Server 2012 RC. This constitutes a large number of servers doing a lot of work. How do some of the new .NET 4.5 features (like multi-core JIT and background GC) scale? Bing's a rather good test case for both .NET 4.5 and WS 2012 given the volume of requests it serves.
Topics include:
Pinning and Heap Corruption (and strategies for alternative approaches to pinning).
Multicore JIT
Performance tuning and PerfView
Background GC
As usual, this is conversation that happened as it did. There will be a few random turns, but roads lead to time well spent! Thanks for being sports, Maoni, Vance and Mukul!
Tune in. Enjoy
