In pursuit of this goal, we have started developing a new. Our team wanted to make it easier for developers to find these kinds of issues and also identify where you might remediate the problem.
Of course, at this point, there are still a wide range of underlying causes that might be at the heart of your problematic service behavior. CPU and memory tend to remain within normal range.Increase in the number of requests resulting in timeouts.Service response times are slower than normal.We talked to a bunch of support engineers and the “sync-over-async” antipatterns have a set of negative performance characteristics:
#DUMP MEMORY CELLPROFILER HOW TO#
There has been some confusion on the best practices for async and how to use it properly which has led to some antipatterns that may not reveal themselves until your service is under high load. NET platform but can been difficult to do well. Selecting and executing analyzers against the dumpĪsynchronous (async) programming has been around for several years on the.NET Memory Dump Analyzer to find production issues by: This blog post details how to use Visual Studio’s new. NET analyzers have been developed to help identify the key signals in your memory dump that might indicate a problem with your production service. However, upon talking to developers and support engineers we know that memory analysis can be time consuming, complex, and requires a skillset that can take years to perfect. For problems that do not manifest in logs or that you cannot investigate by debugging locally you might attempt to capture a diagnostics artifact, like a memory dump, while the issue is active in your production environment.
