Hi guys,

I was doing some performance measurements using a really wide range of Delphi compilers and I decided that I'll write a more complete blog post showing some results and discussing the memory managers available to Delphi users. It's not ready yet, but it will be soon.

Anyway, until then, I'd like you - Delphi/IntraWeb developer - to open your IntraWeb project and double check what is the memory manager that you are currently using.

The results that I obtained testing different memory managers are shocking!! Here's the result of one test case:

- Delphi default MM (based on FastMM4): 13K req/s
- FastMM 4 with std options: 10K req/s
- FastMM 4.992 (options included with IntraWeb installer): 30K req/s
- MSHeap: 43K req/s
- FastMM 5: 44K req/s
- ScaleMM2: 45K req/s

Forget minor differences now and focus on the most important thing:

If you don't use any memory manager other than the Delphi built-in (based on FastMM4) or you are using an older version of FastMM4 (anything other than 4.992), your IntraWeb application is probably limited to 1/3 of its real capacity, due to the limited capacity of the old MMs to handle memory allocation/deallocation in a multi-threaded application 

More on it to come, but for now, check your source code and fix it right now. I'd recommend you to start with the version of FastMM 4.992 that can be installed with IntraWeb (it's the exact same version that you can find on Github but we configured the options to give you maximum performance in production).

Cheers

Hi,

I use for test SOAPUI with this example

I've been using Delphi 12 daily now as my primary IDE. I've been also using it to build and test IntraWeb and other applications. The general impression is good. Better than I thought it would be actually.

1) Performance of compiled code:

My benchmarks show that there is a 13-16% performance gain in IntraWeb applications built with Delphi 12. I can't currently pinpoint where this gain comes from but I believe it comes from the changes in some core routines of the RTL (like Move, FillChar, and possibly others). 

One of our Indy server benchmark applications went from 11500 to 13700 requests/second on my test machine.

2) Compiler

Seems that they fixed lots of stuff that was affecting LSP and everything that depends on it. I have no problems working with IntraWeb code base and other code bases as well. 

3) IDE

Looks stable to me and I didn't have to restart it a single time due to unexpected crashes.

One thing that is bugging me though and I'll need to investigate: I can't copy any control on forms (or datamodules, IW forms, whatever) and paste them. Every time I try to copy a control I get an "Out of system resources" exception. Not sure if this is caused by any plugin (I only have GExperts and CNWizards  installed). Still need to investigate. If someone also finds this problem, please let me know.

Overall I think this is the best release so far, especially due to the performance improvement. It's great to have a faster product with a single button click.

What libraries/variables does the function IWBSLibSetCDNS load ?
Does it load all this global Bootstrap3 variables from IWBSGlobal ?
  gIWBS4LibJQueryJs
  gIWBSLibBootstrapCss

  gIWBSLibBootstrapJs

  gIWBS4LibPolyFillerJs

  gIWBS4LibIWBSCss
  gIWBS4LibIWBSJs

  gIWBS4LibDynamicTabsCss
  gIWBS4LibDynamicTabsJs

  gIWBSLibSummerNoteCss
  gIWBSLibSummerNoteJs


Can I call only this function (IWBSLibSetCDNS) to load Bootstrap3 or there are some variables that I must load myself ?

I spent ALL f'ng day today trying to get a key for my XE2 pro that actually worked and let me create a plain SA {No-IP dns}:80 anything not "127.0...". I think IW is the greatest product I will never use.
Communications are poor, inconsistent, and lack handholding.

AtZ says I have a Delphi XE2 key and to go to "Product" then "My Keys".  Help! How do I do this?

Hi all-
Quick question, I think the answer is Yes, but I just wanted to confirm...
Can one single IW application (service) support both HTTP and HTTPS ?

(Im using http.sys, not OpenSSL)

Thanks.

Hi,

How does Priority Support work? I have the Intraweb Ultimate with 2 years of support. Am I in the right place?

If so: https://www.atozed.com/forums/thread-3725.html

Is there any difference between ExecuteJS() and CallbackResponse.AddJavaScriptToExecute()?

Edition: IntraWeb Ultimate Edition
IntraWeb Version: 15.5.5
C++Builder: 12

[ilink32 Fehler] Error: Nicht auflösbares externes '__fastcall Iwservercontrollerbase::TIWSSLOptions::SetPortA(const int)' referenziert von ...\WIN32\DEBUG\SERVERCONTROLLER.OBJ
[ilink32 Fehler] Error: Linken kann nicht ausgeführt werden

As of version IW15.5.4, the port property function has been changed in IWServerControllerBase.hpp:
old: __property int Port = {read=FPort, write=FPort, default=0};
new: __property int Port = {read=FPort, write=SetPort, default=0};

Unfortunately, the pragma entry required to redirect the property functions SetPortA()/SetPortW is missing.
