New Message on dotNET User Group Hyd [Podcast] Finalizers and their impact on managed code performance Reply   Reply to Sender   Recommend Message 2 in Discussion From: johnsonsmithy2k2 Gaurav:  Microsoft has a very good article on analyzing .Net memory issues that can be found at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url="">   Tools Any good investigator needs a set of tools to examine the evidence. Here are my tools. WinDbg (Windows Debugger) from Microsoft. This tool allows us to analyze the memory contents of your application. This can be downloaded from Microsoft, http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/default.mspx SOS CLR debugger extensions. This is used in conjunction with WinDbg to look inside of the managed memory. The latest version of SOS is included with the WinDbg download. There have been many good articles written of the basics of using SOS including this MSDN article, http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/06/Bugslayer/ ADPlus which is included in the Microsoft debugging tools. This script allows for capturing memory dumps when a process hangs or crashes. For capturing crash dumps the following command line is used: ADPlus.vbs crash pn aspnet_wp.exe This attaches the CDB debugger to the process with the specified name. If you are running on Window 2003 where there may multiple instance of the w3_wp.exe processes, you can specify the process id (PID) by using the p switch followed by the process id. If you wish to create an immediate dump you can open Task Manager and end the process. This will simulate a process crash. Sounds Intersting?
