I just finished my presentation on ASP.NET Performance Tips for the Second Life .NET User Group. I must say ... it went very well! The feedback from the attendees was very positive and I think everyone learned something ... if not several things. In fact, I did have one attendee say "I didn't think I'd learn anything here, but I did!". That just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
So ... some links ...
First, Fritz Onion's blog with the perf results that I referred to (there are actually 2 entries): http://www.pluralsight.com/blogs/fritz/archive/2004/10/19/2892.aspxhttp://www.pluralsight.com/blogs/fritz/archive/2005/02/14/5861.aspx
And ... the PowerPoint deck and a sample of Async Tasks: http://downloads.microsoft-j.net/Performance_tips.zip. One note: this is the deck that I use for RL presentations. I trimmed some of the text from it so it would rez better in-world. But I think the additional notes will be helpful.
