Question application running slow in server 2008 r2 standard

[jigneshdlad@gmail.com]

I had developed an application on XP. Later i shifted it to windows server 2008 r2 standard.
The application is running slow on 2008 as compare to XP.
The coding is same. I had tried with sql2008 and vs2010 but there is no improvement on the performance.

So pls. give me solution to improve the performance on 2008 server.

You seem to think that we have intimate knowledge of your application. We don't. All we know is what you tell us and you have told us all but nothing. Imagine that you went to a doctor and said "I have a friend who is sick. Tell me how to make them well again". Would you expect to get a useful diagnosis?

I am just saying that the application which is running perfectly alright on windows xp then why it is running slow on windows server 2008.

The sql query to update,add or delete from tables are running slow as compared to xp.

There is no one thing that makes applications run slower on Windows Server R2. You haven't even defined what "slower" means. Something that used to take 20 seconds now takes 21? Something that used to take 2 seconds now takes a minute? If you're not prepared to make the effort to provide a proper explanation of what you're doing and what behaviour you're seeing then we can't help.

Even with an explanation of what is "slower", no one will be able to give you an answer unless you post the code or query that is noticeably slower... That is why debuggers and breakpoints exist. I suggest you add some debug stopwatches around specific code blocks, log the elapsed time after each block, and compare the outputs between OSes. Keep doing that until you spot the piece of code that is bumming down your party and then post it here.
