Key takeaway
Use SPQuery for large lists instead of SPMetal. While testing with a list of 45K items, SPQuery performed at 0.06s compared to SPMetal’s performance at 9.98s.
Background
I was recently faced with determining the storage mechanism for a custom application. The choices were ‘SharePoint lists vs. SQL tables’. The user interface of this [...]

This object is also responsible for ‘connecting’ results between webparts such as the Paging, Core Results and Search Actions webparts. Now what if you want to do a custom keyword query or perhaps even a [...]
Here is an easy way to change the display names for the authentication providers on the claims drop down in sharepoint 2010. Simply create a new signin page with a LogonSelector control and add this to the code-behind:
protected override void OnPreRenderComplete(EventArgs e) { base.OnPreRenderComplete(e); var ntlm = ClaimsLogonSelector.Items.FindByText("Windows Authentication"); if (ntlm [...]
