The .NET Framework 4 Beta 2 has been released and is available for download at http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/dd582936.aspx. .NET 4 includes significant advancements for developers writing parallel and concurrent applications, including Parallel LINQ (PLINQ), the Task Parallel Library (TPL), new thread-safe collections, and a variety of new coordination and synchronization data structures. This Code Gallery project includes example applications and library functionality that demonstrate, utilize, and augment this support (it is not production quality). For descriptions of these samples, visit http://blogs.msdn.com/pfxteam/archive/2009/12/09/9934811.aspx. For discussions of Parallel Extensions and/or these samples, visit the forums at http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/parallelextensions/threads. For documentation on the parallelism constructs in .NET 4, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd460693(VS.100).aspx. For information direct from the Parallel Extensions team, subscribe to the team blog at http://blogs.msdn.com/pfxteam.

Comments Shane wrote Dec 13 2009 at 3:01 AM Setting BUFFER_SIZE = 0x60000; instead of the default 0x2000 gave me nearly 2x the speed improvement for stream copying. Overall I've found that 0x60000 (128k*3) to be an optimal Windows buffer size, much closer to 512k and it begin's to degrade; Sign in to add a comment
