The idle task (a.k.a. swapper task) is chosen to run when no more runnable tasks in the run queue at the point of task scheduling. But what is the usage for this so special task? Another question is why i can't find this thread/process in the "ps aux" output (PID=0) from the userland? ...
I am doing some performance measurement of my code on a Windows box and I am finding that I am getting dramatically different results between measurements. A quick bit of ad hoc exploration during a slow one shows in the task manager System Idle Processes taking up almost 100% CPU. Does anyone know what System Idle Processes actually m...
I know one can set the session timeout. But, if the application itself has received no requests for a given period of time, IIS shuts down the application. This behavior is configurable in the IIS management console, and I know how to do this. Still, I wonder if it is possible to configure this in web.config. ...
I'm trying to find out when a process has stopped doing his work. I've been trying it with this code but it doesn't notice that the program is still running and processing a file. Probably because it's still doing things that take less then one microsecond: TimeSpan startTime = m_Process.TotalProcessorTime; int idleCycles = 0; ...
There is a similar thread else where, but it focues on gameprogramming which I find a little different to regular gui applications with some 'extra sugar'. What would be the right approach for driving small gui-animations (like expanding/collapsing panels, glowing buttons etc)? Would it be best to setup a timer to fire at regular inter...
Hi everyone, I currently have a very simple app for which the only interaction is shaking the iPhone. However eventually the screen dims and auto-locks since the iPhone is not getting any touch events. I was wondering if there is a way to reset the auto-lock time-out when shaken? I know that to disable auto-lock completely I would do...

We are stuck in a situation where one of our processes is taking 3 hours of computing without touching the database. The connection that was taken before calling the process gets closed by the Oracle server and any subsequent query or commit throws connection closed exception.

If this does happen, I'd like to present the user with a message stating why they were logged out and redirect them to the login page. What is the best way to handle this?

I have a jetty server which is configured to expire requests after 30 seconds, this is the configuration line in the xml config file: <Set name="maxIdleTime">30000</Set> There are two kinds of requests that are accepted by this server: requests which have to be served in real time and requests that come from batch scripts that can tak...
Are there any Java IMAP libraries with support for the IDLE commands, other than Sun Java Mail? I've been using Sun's JavaMail, and it works well, except that it has quite a bit of memory overhead. ...
Lets say I am using IMAP IDLE to monitor changes in a mail folder. The IMAP spec says that IDLE connections should only stay alive for 30 minutes max, but it is recommended that a lower number of minutes is selected - say 20 minutes, then cancel the idle and restart. I am wondering what would happen if the mail contents changed between...
I have a Windows Forms application that uses some Application.Idle handlers to change the status of controls on the form. After I added a ListView to the form I realized the Idle-Handlers get called way too often when the mouse cursor is over the ListView. By using Spy++ I saw that when the mouse cursor is over the control (not moving) ...

Whenever I try to reopen it it informs me that it's...
