Hi,
I am using the SharePoint Object Model via a console app on the same server as the SharePoint installation, and using the following code:
SPSite MySite = new SPSite("http://server/");
SPWeb MyWeb = MySite.OpenWeb();
MyWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
SPList MyList = MyWeb.Lists["Test"];
const string EmptyQuery = "0";
SPQuery q = new SPQuery { Query = EmptyQuery };
String Source = "Test String";
for( int i = 1; i < 1000; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine("Creating new item");
SPListItem MyItem = MyList.GetItems(q).Add();
Console.WriteLine("Created new item");
Console.WriteLine("Assigning Title Value");
MyItem["Title"] = Source.ToString();
Console.WriteLine("Assigned Title Value");
MyItem.Update();
}
I am getting a several second pause between "Assigning Title Value" and "Assigned Title Value".
When I deploy the code as a Web Part, its instantaneous, the delay only seems to be when the code is deployed as a console application.
Edit: More information! When I have more than one field being assigned, its always the first field that is slow, any subsequent assignments are as fast as expected. If I switch the order of fields around, it has no effect on the delay - the first field is always slow.
Any thoughts?
