How to add support of multi-core/multiprocessor support to Windows XP SP3?

Run this in command line:

rundll32 syssetup,SetupInfObjectInstallAction ACPIAPIC_MP_HAL 128 %windir%\inf\hal.inf

This command replace single-core kernel to multi-core kernel without reinstalling Windows. You should be required to confirm driver installation and to reboot twice.

Free Pascal (like Delphi) provide some useful functions to watch heap memory state in your application.

function GetHeapStatus: THeapStatus;

In the previous article "Crack C# namespaces in 30 seconds" I demonstrated how to make error having no idea about it. So you will have a lovely time in debugging. But in C# you're condemned to use using directive or your code will be unreadable with all these horrible specifiers

GenieLamp is the software factory and model-driven development framework. I developed it because there is no sense to lead several "agile" coders when several Genies could replace them and do the work.

Quick start on the project's wiki.

Let's perform a simple benchmark testing the random and sequential access to arrays and lists. I would like to compare:

• static array with predefined size (allocated on stack)
• TList container class (allocated on heap)
• dynamic array (allocated on heap)
• generic Delphi TList or Free Pascal TFPGList (allocated on heap)

I use an array/list of 10M elements of integer and varaint data type. You can change the type definition in "type" section if need to test other cases.
