ANTS Memory Profiler - Which Memory Should Be Looking At?
Aug 24, 2010
I have a memory issue on my websites and am trying to get to the bottom of it. I have downloaded the 14 day trial of ANTS Memory Profiler and have been playing with it to get a grip of what it's telling me. In the memory options on the timeline, I can see Bytes in All Heaps and Private Bytes etc but I am not sure which ones I should be focusing on to see where the memory spikes and doesn't go back down.I am profiling a ASP.NET website using ASP.NET 2.0.

I've been profiling my ASP.NET application with ANTS Memory Profiler 6, and have seen indications of memory leaks. However, I don't know whether or not the growths I'm seeing are supposed to be there or not (for instance, System.String grows a lot each snapshot. Should it?)I don't understand the whole memory processso I don't know if I am interpreting the results correctly or not. How do I interpret the results of the ANTS Memory Profiler?

I am building an asp.net application, using II6 on windows server 2003 (vps hosting).
I am confronted with an error I didn't receive on my development machine (windows 7, iis 7.5, 64 bit).
When my wcf service tries launching my query running against a local sql server this is the error I receive:
Memory gates checking failed because the free memory (43732992 bytes) is less than 5% of total memory. As a result, the service will not be available for incoming requests. To resolve this, either reduce the load on the machine or adjust the value of minFreeMemoryPercentageToActivateService on the serviceHostingEnvironment config element.

I have both VS 2005 and 2008 installed on my machine. 2005 is fine. For 2008, literally any asp.net project I try to create gets this eror. I try stepping into the code, and the error occurs apparently before anything that I can trap is loaded. There is no information written to the event log. I have tried this with a "Hello World" webpage with nothing else going on. Seems unique to my Windows Server 2003 machine.

I am maintaining C# .NET code written by somebody else, I get following exception few times,Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corruptThe code structure where I get the above exception is somethign like this,- it is using ref variables in following sequence,Variable-1 and variable-2 are local variables in App1, - App1: func1() which passes these variables reference to func2(), - App1: func2() passes same variables reference via .net remoting to another application (App2).-App2: does the same passes same received reference to another call 2 times.- The execption is occured while returning from App2.
(App1:func1(ref Var1, ref Var2) --> App1:func2(ref Var1, ref Var2) <---App1 .net remoting to App2--> App2:func3(ref Var1, ref Var2)--> App2:func4(ref Var1, ref Var2)-->variables getting updated and function returned to original caller)
My doubts are ,1. Is passing reference variables in such chain is correct? will it cause such exeption? Does .net support ref variable call directly?

I have a memory leak somewhere that I cant find. Every few days my server will crash, and just before that I log a ton of SQL errors stating that it is "out of memory".
I cant find it anywhere, all of my connections are being disposed like so:
[Code]....
Then I call the connection from my pages like so:[Code]....
That is all pretty straight forward. The connection is disposed because it is implementing the USING clause. I am opening the connection in my connection manager class, and not where it is being utilized?Or, could the problem be in the below method I am using to populate a SqlDataReader:[Code]....
Now, at first it appears as though this could be the problem because the Connection isn't part of a USING clause, however doesn't the 'Data.CommandBehavior.CloseConnection' pretty much do the same thing. This makes sure that the connection is closed when the reader is closed, right? Here is how I call that above reader from my login page code behind:[Code]....
So the DataReader will get closed even without the .Close() because it is in the USING, and the connection should get closed because I specified it in the ExecuteReader paramters right?

I am using ITextSharp to generate pdf on the fly and then saving it to disk and display it using Frame.he Frame has an attribute called src where I pass the generated file name.his all is working fine what I want to achieve is passing the generated pdf file to Frame without saving it to disk.
HtmlToPdfBuilder builder = new HtmlToPdfBuilder(PageSize.LETTER);
HtmlPdfPage first = builder.AddPage();
//import an entire sheet
builder.ImportStylesheet(Request.PhysicalApplicationPath + "CSS\Stylesheet.css");
string coupon = CreateCoupon();
first.AppendHtml(coupon);
byte[] file = builder.RenderPdf();
File.WriteAllBytes(Request.PhysicalApplicationPath+"final.pdf", file);
printable.Attributes["src"] = "final.pdf";

I have a procedure where I am building a table to store rows of data. I did not think this was to memory intensive. However my form does not seem load effortlessly. I call this procedure in the Form Load Event. Is there a more optimal place (Form Loading Event Procedure) to put code that may require a little more memory than usual?

I've got fluent nhibernate in my application and I'm trying to locate the cause of high memory usage. (I say high, it's 60MB, but it's a web app and it's not very big) Unfortunately it looks like a lot of it is in unmanaged memory, so I started taking things out - and as soon as I took out any calls to nhibernate, the memory usage dropped to 11MB!! Why oh why would it be taking up so much memory? Especially, why would it be taking up unmanaged memory?
I've been 'Googling' this all day and all I can find are posts from people saying "NHibernate eats memory..." and answers that say "no it doesn't, there's no evidence". Are NHibernate people in denial about it?

Does anybody know how much memory should an asp.net website consume? My new asp.net website seems to consume a lot of memory from the hosting server.
note that up until now we haven't used any type of caching.

We got "out of memory" issue on production servers. What API can we use to get live memory (physical and managed) usage of the ASP.NET application?
PS: we're forbidden to profile memory with tools.

On http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w070t6ka(v=VS.100).aspx there is an example on how to do impersonation with .net 4.0. We have used this example in a class that inherits IDisposable for ease of use. However, when we use this class in a asp.net web application, we notice a slight but steady increase of Pool Paged Bytes in performance monitor. After a week, the application crashes.
I've tried different implementations of the impersonation-class, using http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w070t6ka(v=VS.90).aspx and http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306158 as reference, but they all show the same leak.
Where does this leak come from? Is there a problem with the windows api? We are running Windows 2008 R2.
This is our current version of the impersonation class:
public class Impersonator : IDisposable
{
public Impersonator(string username, string domain, string password)
{
if (!ImpersonateValidUser(username, domain, password))[code]....
And this is the performance monitor graph of two webservers using different versions of the class:
When we disable the class, and use global impersonation via web.config, those lines are completely flat.
Update,I have made a test-application that successfully reproduce the problem. It can be downloaded here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/447325211/ImpersonationTest.zip
The result over 18 hours looks like this:

I have a datatable with morethan 100o records and around 6 to 7 columns. When I get the data into datatable, I use each field to get distinct values and display in different drodownlists. When all the dropdown lists are filled with data, user selects one of them to filter other dropdown lists with the selected value. I want to know how can I keep datatable data stored till I get all the filtering done. I dont want to store the datatable in session as it may occupy so much of memory. Is there any other way to store the datatable till the end of the process.

The users have requested the option to "generate" an excel file representation of GridView contents.
Does anyone know how to do this without saving the file to the server but rather just streaming it to the user from memory?
My below code is working
streaming directly from memory instead of using physical path of server machine then saving the file on client machine
Private Sub generateExcelSheet()
Try
Dim weekFrom As String = DdFromWeek.SelectedValue
Dim weekTo As String = DdToWeek.SelectedValue

multiple groups of users interacts using browser. in each group, users will interact with some data(objects). the data(objects) are loaded from database. during the interaction, users needs quick and synchronized view of the same data(object), so they must be save in the memory. data(objects) will change during the interaction, but only the final result of this interaction need to be saved back into DB.
My Current Solution
load data(object) into global.asax the manipulate. but for this solution, i got few questions.
how can i make sure the web application have ONLY ONE instance?(configure in iis-->application pool?) because web application would restart by itself, as a result, all data in the application state will lose. how can i avoid application restart by it self rather than managed? in the iis application pool setting, i can set the recycle time, is it guaranteed that no application restart will happen during this time? or is there and event that might trigger something(before application restart) so i can save the current application status and load them back again?

I was told that i may have memory leak in my application. How can i trace is there are any memory leaks in my application? Note: I am not the programmer of this application. But i have the complete source code as i am doing maintenance and enhancements on this application.

I have really tried to Google it but only articles about how to troubleshoot memory issues come up. Before I start to troubleshoot, I would like to know if my web site's memory usage is really abnormal or not.
So it is an asp.net mvc 2 website that runs on IIS 7.5 in production. I guess normal memory usage depends upon traffic, so here are the numbers of an average day:
300 unique visitor
400 visits
3000 page views
I would be really happy to get some idea how much is the normal memory usage for this traffic. Also I would be curious to know how memory usage normally increases with traffic growth.

This is a cross post from my post on SO [URL]
I'm trying to determine the memory used by my ASP.NET MVC application. My host imposes a 100mb application pool memory restriction. However, from my tests, an empty ASP.NET MVC application uses 30mb memory so I have absolutely no hope with an application that actually does something.
I can't find any benchmarks on what a "standard" MVC app should be using (I assume MS have someb somewhere??).
My application is not that special. I use StructureMap for DI and EF Code First. The model is equivelant to that of a blog. If I completely remove my data access code then my memory usage drops to around 40mb (of course in this state its pretty useless).

Im getting some images from a webpage at a specified url, i want to get their heights and widths. I'm using something like this:
Stream str = null;
HttpWebRequest wReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(ImageUrl);
HttpWebResponse wRes = (HttpWebResponse)(wReq).GetResponse();
str = wRes.GetResponseStream();
var imageOrig = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(str);
int height = imageOrig.Height;
int width = imageOrig.Width;
My main concern with this is that that the image file may actually be very large,Is there anything I can do? ie specify to only get images if they are less than 1mb?or is there a better alternative approach to getting the dimension of an image from a webpage?

Bit of a weird title, but here's the deal. For a web site I'm working on, we have the need to generate quasi-3D images on the fly. Basically, it's for an art site, and we have the need to show a 3D representation of a Canvas given a 2D image (jpg). (See here for some context.) The approach we're taking is to leverage the WPF 3D API and create a Viewport3D in code, add a bunch of points to it with the correct dimensions, and then apply the textures from the original jpg appropriately. While testing it, I was testing it the whole time in a sandbox environment, and in the built in Cassini web server in Visual Studio. While trying to migrate it over to the actual code repository and testing it there, it stopped working. The image that's pumped out is the correct size, but is completely blank. It's totally black. After hours of banging my head against the wall, I figured out that it's an IIS issue. I created a simple sample app to demonstrate the issue (doesn't add images though it just paints all sides green), however since most of the code is largely irrelevant to the question, I won't put it here, rather I'll post a link to it:
[URL]
If you do download it and want to run it, in the code behind of Default.aspx you'll see this:
protected void buttonClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var path = @"C: estoutputoutput.png";
IISvsCassini.WpfImageCreator.CreateWPFImage(path);
}
Feel free to change that path to whatever, and make sure that the correct permissions are in place as it'll try to save a file there. If you try that sample in Visual Studio with Cassini, it'll work fine, and you should have a new file called "output.png" which has a green 3D cube. If you try it in IIS, you'll get a blank image. A few points: Before anyone asks, yes, I gave all the proper folders the correct permission issues. I also do the actual 3D generation and image saving on a separate thread with the Apartment state set to STA. know this is a bit of an unusual case of fusing WPF and ASP.Net, but by some chance, Is there some setting in IIS that I need to change? Is there some limitation to the WPF API that won't allow it to run out of IIS?
