| Calls <span class="code">WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name</span> to get the name of |
| the current windows user. |
| </p><p> |
| To improve performance, we could cache the string representation of |
| the name, and reuse that as long as the identity stayed constant. |
| Once the identity changed, we would need to re-assign and re-render |
| the string. |
| </p><p> |
| However, the <span class="code">WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent()</span> call seems to |
| return different objects every time, so the current implementation |
| doesn't do this type of caching. |
| </p><p> |
| Timing for these operations: |
| </p><div class="tableSection"><table><tr><th>Method</th><th>Results</th></tr><tr><td><span class="code">WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent()</span></td><td>10000 loops, 00:00:00.2031250 seconds</td></tr><tr><td><span class="code">WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name</span></td><td>10000 loops, 00:00:08.0468750 seconds</td></tr></table></div><p> |
| This means we could speed things up almost 40 times by caching the |
| value of the <span class="code">WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name</span> property, since |
| this takes (8.04-0.20) = 7.84375 seconds. |
