Keith, you may be correct. I think my performance issue might just boil down to DTF interop being generally inefficient for my intended purpose.
What I've implemented is a silent handler which sends install progress messages over a WCF duplex channel to another machine. This app has a GUI which displays the installation progress. The only messages I need to send back over that channel are Progress and an exit code (so I can trap errors on the remote end). However, I still want the full MSI log file on the local machine. All of the above work just fine, but it's super chatty, slow, and verbose. Happy to elaborate offline. gist.github.com/mrichman/a01acdfe98a56ff44b42 -- Mark Richman (954) 234-9049 <1-954-234-9049> m...@markrichman.com | http://markrichman.com https://linkedin.com/in/mrichman On Wed, Apr 22, 2015 at 9:04 AM, <keith.doug...@statcan.gc.ca> wrote: > I may be wrong, but in my experience *any* log contains those. > > > > Keith Douglas > Statistics Canada | 170 Tunney's Pasture Driveway, Ottawa ON K1A 0T6 > Statistique Canada | 170, promenade Tunney's Pasture, Ottawa ON K1A 0T6 > keith.doug...@statcan.gc.ca > Telephone | Téléphone 613-854-5589 > Facsimile | Télécopieur 613-951-4674 > Government of Canada | Gouvernement du Canada > > -----Original Message----- > From: Mark A.
