Mark Russinovich goes inside the Windows Vista kernel in the February edition of Technet Magazine to explain the new thread and process performance measurement algorithms that give you a more accurate picture of how your CPU time is spent. He also discusses the Multimedia Class Scheduler Service that provides users with a more seamless playback experience by better managing background tasks such as anti-virus and content indexing. | ||

Vista still seems plagued with the lengthy "everything locked up, what the heck is going on?" pauses that XP has. It was supposed to be solved/not-as-bad in Vista, but the RC's seemed worse than XP on the same hardware.
The USB and drive-insert notification lockups do seem gone from Vista, which is good. I still wish Windows had a "Stop whatever the hell it is that you're doing right now that is locking up my PC" button because it gets really annoying. |

| The article talks about symbolic links but doesn't state that Vista's symbolic links are not backward-compatible. Meaning they wont work with Linux, Mac OS X or not even Windows XP. You require another Vista client or Longhorn Server. |

| Those other OSes need to support SMB 2.0, and/or the support needs to be added to MS' NFS implementation (not sure if it's already there -- haven't tried it). Last I checked, the Samba team have an early implementation of SMB 2.0 available, but I don't think it supports symlinks yet. XP won't work because its version of NTFS doesn't include the necessary structures, and it only supports SMB 1.x. |
