4530:2305:4519Visual studio Premium 2012 version 11 with Update 3, Win7/64, .NET 4.5.50709 to be exact Anyway i don't see how he gets ~14 seconds for String.Equals P.S i should say i have problems with my hard at work. I am waiting for it to die. This also can affect the pasted data. I wonder what the results will be with reading from SSD Note to myself : seconds comes after milliseconds not minutes. Stupid

It's milliseconds, so it was just under 14 seconds, not minutes! ;P I'm running the code in LinqPad[^], and I've tried both with and without optimisations enabled, but it doesn't make a huge difference.

Interesting: I'm also Win7/64, but .NET 4.0 rather than 4.5. Adding OrdinalIgnoreCase:
string string1 = File.ReadAllText(@"D:\\Temp\\MyText.txt"); string string2 = File.ReadAllText(@"D:\\Temp\\MyText.txt"); int x = 0; Stopwatch sw1 = new Stopwatch(); sw1.Start(); for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) { if (String.Equals(string1, string2, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)) { x++; } } sw1.Stop(); Console.WriteLine(x); x = 0; Stopwatch sw2 = new Stopwatch(); sw2.Start(); for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) { if (String.Compare(string1, string2, true) == 0) { x++; } } sw2.Stop(); Console.WriteLine(x); x = 0; Stopwatch sw3 = new Stopwatch(); sw3.Start(); for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) { if (String.Compare(string1, string2, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) == 0) { x++; } } sw3.Stop(); Console.WriteLine(x); Console.WriteLine("{0}:{1}:{2}", sw1.ElapsedMilliseconds, sw2.ElapsedMilliseconds,sw3.ElapsedMilliseconds);gives results similar to yours:

You'll have to redo the test using the same textfile. I believe that's where most of the difference lies.

You really didn't think it through:
char p = item.charAt[0];
char f = item.charAt[1]
char u = item.charAt[1]
if (p == 'P' || p == 'p' &&
u == '_' &&
f == 'f' || p == 'F')
{
// you're good to go....

Well that's just cruel! If you're going to rewrite it, at least make sure it works. :doh:

Yeah i know its in milliseconds but my upper processor forgot that after miliseconds seconds are next not minutes :D I am running it in debug mode with no optimisations.

"I am running it in debug mode with no optimisations." Why on earth try to benchmark code with no optimisations? Complete waste of time.

how about using the same character twice and the missing semicolons? :D

I hope that's a good example of sarcasm! ;P

I've been always wondering why people just don't use string comparison functions with the case ignoring ability. Many languages have them. Why use ToLower or ToUpper if you don't really need that lowered string? One my colleague once told me that because of the belovers of ToUpper/ToLower the program he had to improve was doing its job during about 11 hours (the program was in C++)!!! After just replacing the appropriate functions with stricmp and similar ones (which compare ignoring the case) the program got the awesome performance boost: it managed to finish its execution in just one hour or such. Taste the difference!
