Sometimes I detect in different c++ projects code like this:
std::vector<DataClass> _dataVec;
...
std::vector<DataClass>().swap(_dataVec);
Is this code more effective than obvious and simple clear call
_dataVec.clear();
or these code samples have some kind of difference?
For what purpose I should prefer first variant?

C++ cache aware programming

I am profiling my code on various CPUs running Windows7 and my results so far suggest that I need to tune a buffer size proportional to the machine's L2CacheSize or L3CacheSize. Is there a way to obtain these parameters from C++?
You can use the GetLogicalProcessorInformation function to get that. It returns an array of SYSTEM_LOGICAL_PROCESSOR_INFORMATION structures which contain a CACHE_DESCRIPTOR structure, which provides the cache size information.

How to get memory usage under Windows in C++
(5 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
Under windows, given a PID:
1) How to get the exact memory in bytes and
2) The exact CPU usage
consumed by that application right now?
See GetProcessMemoryInfo, and specifically the WorkingSetSize field of the out parameter.
GetProcessTimes will let you know how much time your process has spent altogether in user & kernel space. It's up to you to calculate percentages, or whatever you want out of it.
