Hello everyone,
Here is my sample program for web service server side and client side. I met with a strnage performance problem, which is, even if I increase the number of threads to call web services, the performance is not improved. At the same time, the CPU/memory/network consumption from performance panel of task manager is low. I am wondering what is the bottleneck and how to improve it?
(My test experience, double the number of threads will almost double the total response time)
[Code]
Client side:
class Program
{
static Service1[] clients = null;
static Thread[] threads = null;
static void ThreadJob (object index)
{
// query 1000 times
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
clients[(int)index].HelloWorld();
}
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Specify number of threads: ");
int number = Int32.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
clients = new Service1[number];
threads = new Thread[number];
for (int i = 0; i < number; i++)
{
clients [i] = new Service1();
ParameterizedThreadStart starter = new ParameterizedThreadStart(ThreadJob);
threads[i] = new Thread(starter);
}
DateTime begin = DateTime.Now;
for (int i = 0; i < number; i++)
{
threads[i].Start(i);
}
for (int i = 0; i < number; i++)
{
threads[i].Join();
}
Console.WriteLine("Total elapsed time (s): " + (DateTime.Now - begin).TotalSeconds);
return;
}
}
Server side:
[WebMethod]
public double HelloWorld()
{
return new Random().NextDouble();
}
[/Code]
thanks in advance,
George
