How do I measure the cost of a T-SQL query on the wire?

How can I calculate the size of a T-SQL query in bytes transfered across the network? I know I can approximate it by examining data types of columns (varchars are an interesting twist though), but are there tools that'll give me the number of bytes (including and excluding TCP/IP headers) used up while transferring the query and its res...

Is the Network Performance counter "Bytes Total/sec" is reliable

All, I'm building a network intensive application to consume real time financial marketdata and the network team is suspicious regarding its bandwidth usage per instance. I'm trying to use the System.Diagnostic performance counter "Bytes Total/sec" in the "Network interface" to get an idea of my application footprint on the network. H...

How can I throttle speed with mod_cband without showing 503?

I am currently using mod_cband with Apache 2.2 to throttle bandwidth on a server. Whenever the traffic exceeds my limits, apache delivers a 503 to some users. Instead I want it to simply block for a while until the rps/kbps is below limit again. Here are my settings: CBandSpeed 1024 100 300 CBandRemoteSpeed 10kb/s 3 2 ...

Controlling image bandwidth issues on a community site

Hello. I am working on a community photo sharing site, and I need some way of controlling the bandwidth. For example I would like to set a maximum bandwidth allowed, which can be image size x the number of times the image was viewed. Similar to what a site like photobucket does (when they replace an image with a bandwidth exceeded image)...

Cannot achieve full speed on Symmetrical Internet Connection

We are using a business Ethernet connection (3Mbit upload, 3Mbit download) and trying to understand issues with our tested bandwidth speeds.

Meaning of bandwidth in CUDA and why it is important

The CUDA programming guide states that "Bandwidth is one of the most important gating factors for performance. Almost all changes to code should be made in the context of how they affect bandwidth." It goes on to calculate theoretical bandwidth which is in the order of hundreds of gigabytes per second. I am at a loss as to why ho...

Implications of using many USB web cameras

I'm looking into connecting multiple low resolution USB webcams to a single computer. What implications might this have on performance? How does, for example, four 320x240 cameras fare against a single 640x480 camera? I'm not well versed in the architecture of the USB interface, what are the performance caveats? By performance I mean how...
