    Scheduling, Thread Context, and IRQL

    Scheduling, Thread Context, and IRQL December 31, 2020 Abstract This paper presents information about how thread scheduling, thread context, and a processor’s current interrupt request level (IRQL) affect the operation of kernel- mode drivers for the Microsoft® Windows® family of operating systems. It is intended to provide driver writers with a greater understanding of the environment in which their code runs. A companion paper, “Locks, Deadlocks, and Synchronization” at http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hwdev/driver/LOCKS.mspx, builds on these fundamental concepts to address synchronization issues in drivers.

    Windows NT Network Management: Reducing Total Cost of Ownership - 9 - Performance Monitoring

    Windows NT ...: Reducing Total Cost of Ownership - Chapter 9 - Performance Monitorin Page 1 of 13 [Figures are not included in this sample chapter] Windows NT Network Management: Reducing Total Cost of Ownership - 9 - Performance Monitoring AN OLD ADAGE SAYS, "IF YOU can’t measure it, you can’t manage it." Even if you can measure something, how can you tell if your changes are making a difference if you don’t have baseline information? It’s important to monitor a server’s or work- station’s performance to maximize your investment in these tools. If a user complains that her computer is too slow, you often need more information to fix the problem. For example, if the problem is loading Web pages on a computer using an analog modem, the modem is probably limiting the system’s performance. However, if the computer is an older model, certain operations may wait for the CPU to finish processing. In this case, a complete system upgrade may be the best solution. The usefulness of performance monitoring goes far beyond handling user expectations. A network and systems administrator can use information obtained by analyzing the operations of existing hardware, software, and networking devices to predict the timing of upgrades, justify the cost of replacing and upgrading devices, and assist in troubleshooting. Performance monitoring ultimately reduces TCO and is a vital part of managing any IT environment. Performance monitoring helps answer important questions about your current environment. For example, you may want to know which activity specifically uses the most resources in your environment. If you determine that it is loading Web pages, then upgrading the RAM or the CPU speed of client machines may not help much.
