[PenguinPig]

I have googling some page, and it hasn't mention the resource usage of the
server in Application class and Cache class, which one consume more server
resource?

Thanks

Hi Michael

In my concept
We can using Application["var1"] or Cache["var1"] to store the data, which
as long as the application live.
But for Application and Cache, which consume more server resource?

Thanks

The application class is a liitle more light weightin itself as it in simply
class that inherits namevaluecollectionbase. The Cache object can support
expireation and things like that which make it a little more heavy weight.
I don't think there is any noticable difference in use for just storing an
Item as they are both going to be instatiated in memory already so the only
new memory allocation would be for item itself in the application and for a
cacheentry object containing the item in the Cache.
It would be helpful to know more about the granularity you are looking for.

Bottom line answer is that the Cache uses more memory from what I can see.

Why are u worring about resources when select the class to state you data?

The selecting of the state class usually depends on the features of this
class. Cache is more robust and powerfull over Application.
Both of them use internal structures to keep data, and difference should not
be valued .
Application uses NameObjectCollectionBase class and Cache uses CacheEntry
class
