I'm not really having a problem with it taking up too much memory. I am performing no file IO access, if there were any transactions going on it would be at the db level, the only thing going on is every page request is a dynamic page requesting data from the db (not too much, pages load in < 1 second).
I've watched the perf monitor, and even when the process started flaking out, the CPU and memory were very low (both less than 20%), and the rest of the server responded as expected. Occasionally IIS would be affected as well (would serve asp pages, but very slowly), even though the memory and processor were both low. The only "unusual" thing that goes on in the application is a WebRequest to hit weblogs.com's ping XML RPC method. However, this only seems to happen every few hours, and if it times out throws exceptions and doesn't break the server.

The mem usage would keep growing, until it reached its limit, and then it would recycle approximately every hour (1 gig of ram). Problem ended up being in my code for dynamically generating images. Had to dispose those Bitmap/Image objects and set them to null. Now it behaves as expected; such that it will grow and then GC will kick in after a while to reclaim memory, and it does not keep recycling. casey You can read messages from the DOTNET archive, unsubscribe from DOTNET, or subscribe to other DevelopMentor lists at http://discuss.develop.com.
