Hmm - ok, so what's the fix? I suppose I could write an app that looks for dllhost.exe and when it's running over 99% for x seconds, kill it. That seems a bit much though, not to mention a little dangerous -  Should I make a trac entry, I wonder?

After looking at it with Sysinternals Process Explorer, it seems that the culprits are actually proj.dll and MgGeometry.dll. Now, I have no idea what this means, but here's what Process Explorer has to say about it:

the CSwitch Deta number is really high - 1000-4000
The 2 threads at fault are:
proj.dl!dmstor+0x3a17

Andrew,

For reference, the proj.dll dmstor() function converts angular values
expressed as a DMS string into radians in numeric form.  In use from mapguide
I believe it would only be used when doing pj_init() to convert a coordinate
system description in string format to an internal coordinate system
description.

I imagine there is some sort of systematic problem at a high level with
left over requests continuing to be processed after they are no longer
needed.  I am doubtful that dmstor itself is at fault.

Best regards,
