I have a windows service that acts as a .NET Remoting listener for incoming requests from remote clients. I verified that the listener does actually use the thread pool to service client requests. Now, given the fact that there are (by default) only 25 threads available in each CPU's thread pool, should a specific programming paradigm be followed by clients to ensure scalability?
For example, assuming my server has only one CPU (hence 25 pool threads), how can I ensure that my .NET listener on the server will respond to 50 simultaneous clients? Should clients invoke methods asynchronously? Should clients use only Single Call SAOs and hence server-side components should be implemented as stateless? Is there a document out there that formalizes the required/recommended approaches for scalability with .NET Remoting?
