Not that I am complaining, but sluggish loading instances times will sometimes affect your placement in google and could damage your quality score if ads and marketing with Adwords.

I require to use same ..but wondering how could i do this ? I have bunch of files to process for IP/OP. It takes input file -> Extract Text -> set Content in Op file. i divided this with Threads..but it not using avaliable Processors.. how could i dispatch & use all both threa/Task by setting processor affinity In C#.net application. Hello,

Great explanation about using Processor affinity.

I require to use same ..but wondering how could i do this ?

I have bunch of files to process for IP/OP.
It takes input file -> Extract Text -> set Content in Op file.

i divided this with Threads..but it not using avaliable Processors..

how could i dispatch & use all both threa/Task by setting processor affinity In C#.net application.

This means two things effectively:

1. A single OS thread can host multiple CLR threads (e.g. using fibers or other cooperative scheduling mechanisms)

2. A single CLR thread can jump between multiple OS threads

In the default CLR host, CLR threads and OS threads are essentially the same, and therefore you can safely ignore this warning, at least with the current CLR version.  However, if you’re running under a custom host (such as SQL Server 2005 or your own), then you should be aware of the fact that the OS thread id doesn’t mean much.

By the way, if you are very concerned about keeping your CLR thread on the same OS thread, then you can call Thread.BeginThreadAffinity and the CLR thread will be tied to the OS thread from that moment on.

This also means that using the Win32 API removes the deprecation warning, but the problem remains.  When you call kernel32!GetCurrentThread and kernel32!SetThreadAffinityMask you are changing the affinity of the current underlying OS thread, which is not guaranteed to be the stable OS thread for the current CLR thread.
