Concurrent requests - driving me insane!

[ipmccun]

Hello all:

Perhaps someone can shed some light on this: I'm trying to create a
situation, while debugging, where a long running request (sleeps for
15s) and a short running request execute concurrently. Right now, no
matter what I do, it seems that they execute serially. I've verified
(by watching netstat) that two simultaneous connections are being made
to the server, so I'm sure this isnt the standard IE "only two
connections to the same server" issue.

Here are the two things I'm left with: 1) Is this some limitation of
the IIS on XP Pro? Will it only service one request at a time? or 2)
is there some condition associated with debugging (i.e. having VS.NET
attached to the aspnet_wp.exe process) that makes these requests
execute serially?

This is driving me fricken nuts! Thanks for any input.
Ian

I remember something similar a while back hapening to my code. I forgot the
cause but it was a resource that was getting locked.

Can you post some source code that isolates the problem? I think when seeing
it in action in will come to mind again.


Cheers,

Don't I feel like a dumbass; it was completely obvious once you put
that notion in my head. Both requests were demanding R/W access to the
session state. Changing them to read only fixed the problem. Thanks,
Tom.
