• Visual Studio How do you draw an association?

  It seems that you can only right click a protected or public data member and select "Show as Association". What about a private data member And what's the Toolbox association button for Whenever I click it and draw a (dotted) line between two classes nothing happens.

• Visual Studio Team System Official data about overhead and performances of Team Foundation Server

  Hello everybody, beg your pardon for cross-posting. I'd like to know if there's any official available data about overhead introduced by TFS (e.g., to store 10 MB of source files, how many MB of metadata are required ), and about performance improvements in check-out files over VSS. Buck has a blog entry <http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2006/02/22/tfs_size_estimation.aspx > on determining space requirements. I don’t know if there are any official comparisons with VSS, but it should be much much faster for large operations / large DBs. ...Show All

• SQL Server Memory Configuration

  We have a SQL 2000 Cluster with 8GB RAM. We are using both /3GB /PAE in our boot.ini and we have SQL configured to use a fixed memory size of 6572MB.

Here is an article discussing where my assumptions came from: http://www.sql-server-performance.com/awe_memory.asp "This means that SQL Server will automatically grab all the RAM it can when it starts (except for about 128MB, which is reserved for the operating system), but it will not ...Show All
