 |
|
Hi,
I am caching some of my tables into memory using shared class like show below or as entity POCO object. I tried both of them.
| Code: |
Public Shared Function CacheDT() As cacheDS.CacheDataTable
If _CacheDT Is Nothing Then
Dim myCacheTableAdapter As New cacheDSTableAdapters.CacheTableAdapter
_CacheDT = myCacheTableAdapter.GetData()
End If
Return _CacheDT
End Function
|
there are plenty of tables which arent changed frequently in my DB. that's why i am caching about 2 GB of data in the memory. my developer machine has 16 gb ram and webserver has 64 gb ram. I am getting system out of memory exception altougt physical memory usage isnt even reaching 8 gb. I found that nice article explaining me it is nothing to do with physical memory but addressing fact http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ericlippert/archive/2009/06/08/out-of-memory-does-not-refer-to-physical-memory.aspx
Indeed in the article he says it shouldnt be a problem with 64bit machine but my both machines are 64. how does it occur? how can I manage my memory by setting up something or coding something in VB or C#?
I would like to profile my application using ants profiler, I need your advise as I am newbie on that.
thanks for suggestion. |

If the process you are profiling is 32-bit (compiled as "x86"), then Windows has a process memory limit of 2GB. .NET Framework starts to get unstable at about 1.5GB, typically, and throws an outofmemoryexception.

hi Brian,
thanks for your reply but I checked all projects and they are running as "any CPU". my developer machine and server are both 64. that means I believe i am not running 32. Am I correct? thanks |

Maybe/maybe not. You can get anycpu to run as 32-bit if you put the program in the (x86) profram files folder. If you view the process in Task Manager, has it got a *32 next to the process name?

Also if the application is a WebApp deployed to IIS, and the application pool that the app runs in has the "Enable 32-bit application" setting set to "True". If this is the case then the worker process, like Brian says, will be w3wp.exe *32
