Performing atomic operations on data entities having an arbitrary size is disclosed. Version data is associated with a data entity. The version data is saved to a first attribute. The data entity is then accessed. The saved version data is compared to the current version data. If the two are equal, the data entity is valid.

Reducing the cost of framing network packets in a virtual machine environment combines certain network objects to eliminate the cost of fully framing packets between the combined objects. In a virtual environment, for example, this allows a virtual NIC in one partition to send only data to a network provider partition and to rely on the latter to frame and route the data. A source network object, destination network object, or an intermediate network object may enable a separate intermediate network object to frame its data so that the network system may take advantage of offload framing when one or more of the intermediate network object's ports has the capacity to offload framing.

Fast computer startup is provided by, upon receipt of a shutdown command, recording state information representing a target state. In this target state, the computing device may have closed all user sessions, such that no user state information is included in the target state. However, the operating system may still be executing. In response to a command to startup the computer, this target state may be quickly reestablished from the recorded target state information. Portions of a startup sequence may be performed to complete the startup process, including establishing user state. To protect user expectations despite changes in response to a shutdown command, creation and use of the file holding the recorded state information may be conditional on dynamically determined events. Also, user and programmatic interfaces may provide options to override creation or use of the recorded state information.

The invention is directed to methods and data structures that enable a server to respond to a request for a web page by storing data fragments that are at least partially responsive to the request in a cache that is resident in kernel mode physical memory. The cache, a fragment cache, enables the server to respond efficiently, by receiving the request in a kernel mode; composing a response to the request by addressing the fragment cache in kernel mode to retrieve one or more data fragments at least partially responsive to the request; and transforming the data fragments into a composed response. The data fragments are addressable via a universal resource locator (URL) and in a hierarchical data structure, and are addressable by an application responding to the request.
