Tutorial by Examples: critical

Some JavaScript engines (for example, the current version of Node.js and older versions of Chrome before Ignition+turbofan) don't run the optimizer on functions that contain a try/catch block. If you need to handle exceptions in performance-critical code, it can be faster in some cases to keep the ...

double area; double h = 1.0 / n; #pragma omp parallel for shared(n, h, area) for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) { double x = h * (i - 0.5); #pragma omp critical { area += (4.0 / (1.0 + x*x)); } } double pi = h * area; In this example, each threads execute a subset of the iteratio...

Generally most of the exceptions are not that critical, but there are some really serious exceptions that you might not be capable to handle, such as the famous System.StackOverflowException. However, there are others that might get hidden by Catch ex As Exception, such as System.OutOfMemoryExceptio...
