  1. Troubleshooting Web Site Performance Issues with Visual Studio Team System Martin Kulov Director .NET Development National Academy for Software Development MVP – VSTS, MCT, MCSD, MCPD

  2. What We Will Cover • How testing processes can help us deliver quality code • Measuring performance of ASP.NET sites • Improving ASP.NET performance

  3. Session Prerequisites • .NET Framework intermediate level • ASP.NET intermediate level • Windows Counters basic level Level 200

  4. Agenda • WWW (Why, When, What) to test • Web Applications Tests • Performance Testing ASP.NET applications • Profiling ASP.NET Applications • Measuring ASP.NET Applications • Tuning ASP.NET Applications

  5. Why we should test • Quality increase • Finding and fixing design problems • Lowering TCO and maintenance costs

  6. When we should test • As often as possible • As early as possible • Test automation would help a lot

  7. What we should test • Critical business features • Everything else  • The clearer performance goals are, the better we will know what to test • PMs should get these goals defined from the start

  8. Testing Web ApplicationsTesting types • Functional Testing • Performance Testing • Security Testing • Reliability Testing • Usability Testing • others …

  9. Performance Testing • Most critical and often neglected type of test • It should be done during each phase of the project • There are three main principles • Measure • Measure • Measure • Set your desired goals • Tune the application

  10. Setting your goals • Response time • Latency on the server • Latency on the client (TTFB and TTLB) • Throughput • Resource utilization • Identify problem areas • Define workload profiles

  11. Profiling ASP.NET Applications • Profiling is the process of collecting data • We can measure the result • Profiling is done though code instrumentation • In instrumentation we inject additional code to the system so it can generate events

  12. System Resources CountersCPU Counters • Processor\% Processor Time • Processor\% Privileged Time • Processor\% Interrupt Time • System\Processor Queue Length • System\Context Switches/sec

  13. System Resources CountersMemory Counters • Memory\Available Mbytes • Memory\Page Reads/sec • Memory\Pages/sec • Memory\Pool Nonpaged Bytes • Server\Pool Nonpaged Failures • Server\Pool Paged Failures • Server\Pool Nonpaged Peak • Memory\Cache Bytes • Memory\Cache Faults/sec

  14. System Resources CountersNetwork Counters • Network Interface\Bytes Total/sec • Network Interface\Bytes Received/sec • Network Interface\Bytes Sent/sec • Server\Bytes Total/sec • [Protocol_Object]\Segments Received/sec • [Protocol_Object]\Segments Sent/sec • Processor\% Interrupt Time

  15. System Resources CountersDisk I/O Counters • PhysicalDisk\Avg. Disk Queue Length • PhysicalDisk\Avg. Disk Read Queue Length • PhysicalDisk\Avg. Disk Write Queue Length • PhysicalDisk\Avg. Disk sec/Read • PhysicalDisk\Avg. Disk sec/Transfer • PhysicalDisk\Disk Writes/sec

  16. Managed Code CountersMemory Counters • Process\Private Bytes • .NET CLR Memory\% Time in GC • .NET CLR Memory\# Bytes in all Heaps • .NET CLR Memory\# Gen N Collections • .NET CLR Memory\# of Pinned Objects • .NET CLR Memory\Large Object Heap Size

  17. Managed Code CountersOther Counters • Working Set • Process\Working Set • Exceptions • .NET CLR Exceptions\# of Exceps Thrown / sec • Contention • .NET CLR LocksAndThreads\Contention Rate/sec • .NET CLR LocksAndThreads\Current Queue Length

  18. Managed Code CountersOther Counters • Threading • .NET CLR LocksAndThreads\# of current physical Threads • Thread\% Processor Time • Thread\Context Switches/sec • Thread\Thread State • Code Access Security • .NET CLR Security\Total RunTime Checks • .NET CLR Security\Stack Walk Depth

  19. ASP.NET Counters • Worker Process • ASP.NET\Worker Process Restarts • Throughput • ASP.NET Applications\Requests/Sec • Web Service\ISAPI Extension Requests/sec • ASP.NET\Requests Current • ASP.NET Applications\Requests Executing • ASP.NET Applications\Requests Timed Out • Response time / latency • ASP.NET\ Request Execution Time

  20. ASP.NET Counters • Cache • ASP.NET Applications\Cache Total Entries • ASP.NET Applications\Cache Total Hit Ratio • ASP.NET Applications\Cache Total Turnover Rate • ASP.NET Applications\Cache API Hit Ratio • ASP.NET Applications\Cache API Turnover Rate • ASP.NET Applications\Output Cache Entries • ASP.NET Applications\Output Cache Hit Ratio • ASP.NET Applications\Output Cache Turnover Rate

  21. Tuning ASP.NET ApplicationsTuning Process • Performance tuning is an iterative process • On every step we should identify and eliminate bottlenecks • Retest and measure again to see if we are closer to our performance goals

  22. Tuning ASP.NET ApplicationsTuning Categories • Application • Configuration settings • web.config • Platform • .NET Framework • Web Server • OS • Database • System • CPU, Memory, I/O, etc…

  23. Tuning ASP.NET ApplicationsTune the thread pool • <processModel> <processModel enable="true" timeout="Infinite“ idleTimeout="Infinite“ shutdownTimeout="0:00:05" requestLimit="Infinite" requestQueueLimit="5000" restartQueueLimit="10“ memoryLimit="60“ webGarden="false" cpuMask="0xffffffff" userName="machine“ password="AutoGenerate" logLevel="Errors“ clientConnectedCheck="0:00:05“ comAuthenticationLevel="Connect“ comImpersonationLevel="Impersonate“ responseDeadlockInterval="00:03:00" maxWorkerThreads="20“ maxIoThreads="20"/>

  24. Tuning ASP.NET ApplicationsTune the thread pool • <httpRuntime> <httpRuntime executionTimeout="90" maxRequestLength="4096“ useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="false" minFreeThreads="8" minLocalRequestFreeThreads="4" appRequestQueueLimit="100" enableVersionHeader="true"/>

  25. Tuning ASP.NET ApplicationsRecommended settings • Recommended Threading Settings for Reducing Contention

  26. Tuning ASP.NET ApplicationsOther settings • Set memory limit • <processModel ... memoryLimit="60" .../> • IIS 6.0 manager • Set timeouts • <httpRuntime executionTimeout="90" /> • <processModel responseDeadlockInterval="00:03:00" /> • Evaluate use of RequestQueueLimit • <processModel enable="true" requestQueueLimit="5000" />

  27. Tuning ASP.NET ApplicationsOther settings • Disable tracing and debugging • Disable session state • <sessionState mode="off" /> • <sessionState timeout="20"/> • Disable View State • <pages enabledViewState="false" /> <configuration> <system.web> <trace enabled="false" pageOutput="false" /> <compilation debug="false" /> </system.web> </configuration>

  28. Demonstration 1 Profiling and load testing ASP.NET applications with Visual Studio Team System 2005 for Software Testers

  29. Session Summary • The inevitable software testing process • Measuring performance of ASP.NET applications • Tuning performance of ASP.NET applications • Visual Studio Team System 2005 for Software Testing provide integrated profiling, load testing and reporting environment

  30. Next Steps • Create load profiles for your application • Prepare and analyze reports from load testing • Identify and resolve bottlenecks • Tune Windows OS performance • Tune ADO.NET performance • Tune SQL Server performance
