.NET (CLI vs COM+)

[voidvector]

I do development in .NET with C#. Right now I have an application that calls the command-line convert.exe. Would it be significantly beneficial for me to convert it to use a COM+ hook? How much refactoring would I need to do if I were to convert it to use COM+?

I have the same question, so will run some tests to see which is faster.

I am seeing identical perforamce times so far.
I tried identify, and convert on large images.
I just use my stopwatch, but the numbers are the same to about a tenth of a second (the margin of error for my fingers...)

Ah, ok, I think I am going to stick with the current command line implementation. I think it is easier to debug and understand than the COM+ version
