Remoting Performance Counters
The Performance console .NET CLR Remoting category includes counters that provide information about the remoted objects that an application uses. The following table describes these performance counters.
| Performance counter | Description |
|---|---|
Channels |
Displays the total number of remoting channels registered across all application domains since application started. Channels transport messages to and from remote objects. |
Context Proxies |
Displays the total number of remoting proxy objects in this process since it started. A proxy object acts as a representative of the remote objects and ensures that all calls made on the proxy are forwarded to the correct remote object. |
Context Bound Classes Loaded |
Displays the current number of context-bound classes that are loaded. Classes that can be bound to a context are called context-bound classes. Context-bound classes are marked with context attributes, which provide usage rules for synchronization, thread affinity, transactions, and so on. |
Context-Bound Objects Alloc / sec |
Displays the number of context-bound objects allocated per second. Classes that can be bound to a context are called context-bound objects. Context-bound classes are marked with context attributes, which provide usage rules for synchronization, thread affinity, transactions, and so on. This counter is not an average over time; it displays the difference between the values observed in the last two samples divided by the duration of the sample interval. |
Contexts |
Displays the current number of remoting contexts in the application. A context is a boundary containing a collection of objects with the same usage rules such as synchronization, thread affinity, transactions, and so on. |
Remote Calls / sec |
Displays the number of remote procedure calls invoked per second. A remote procedure call is a call on any object outside the caller's application domain. This counter is not an average over time; it displays the difference between the values observed in the last two samples divided by the duration of the sample interval. |
Total Remote Calls |
Displays the total number of remote procedure calls invoked since the application started. A remote procedure call is a call on any object outside the caller's application domain. |
