Slow registry searching.
-
I have created a registry search program, but it speed is crawling. It takes about 100 seconds to pass throught CLSID, Interface and Typelib keys. I wonder if i could speed up the search (by loading the whole keys into memory for example). I use VB6 with standart registry manipulation APIs: (RegOpenKey,RegEnumKey,RegEnumValue). Only Absolute Power and Absolutely No power matters. The rest is slavery.

There's no way to load it in memory first. You might want to look at your code, very closely, for optimization opportunities. Since you didn't supply any code sample, it's really hard to tell you what you might try to get an advantage. RageInTheMachine9532
