Unicode speed vs non-unicode speed |
Thu, Feb 12 2009 10:48 AM | Permanent Link |
James Relyea | Does anyone happen to know if the unicode server compared to the non-unicode server is
faster, slower or indifferent? I'm trying to squeeze every bit of performance for my particular app. Also, if I am targeting English only (definitely not any Asian languages) is there any benefit to using the unicode server even though unicode is native to .Net? The app is a C# app and I've been migrating to the ElevateDB Unicode server but I'm not 100% sure that's the most practical route for me. Thanks jr |

James Relyea | That's a pretty good point. I hadn't thought of anyone using an application written
entirely in English and using it to accept non-English data entry. I think I might try to avoid a simliar email I am still interested about the performance diffs though. jr |

Having said that, however, you shouldn't see any major difference either way. The Windows API is actually 100% Unicode, so the Unicode ElevateDB Server should actually experience slightly faster API calls because no translation has to occur for AnsiStrings during those API calls. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
