IIS Memory Recycling

[Guest]

I am using Windows2003 server with IIS6.
I tried to set the maximum used memory to 50M

However, the process is not recycled when the w3wp process exceed 50m
memory according to task manager.

besides, what is the difference between memory limit in machine.config and
IIS memory recycling..
I need to set both, or set any one?

thank you so much.

With IIS 6 - the settings in the IIS metabase will override the
settings in machine.config. That means you'll want to make this
configuration change using the IIS MMC, not by editing machine.config.

Where did you make the change?

Thx.
Moreover, I want to ask If I do not set the IIS memory recycling option.
The recycle process will depend the memory limit of machine.config?

I have already set the IIS memory recycling option.
maximum used memory -> 50M

but w3wp memory usage(I just look at the task manager) > 50M
the w3wp process is still not recycle.


Thank you very much

My understanding is that the processModel settings will only be used
in IIS 5 application compatibility mode. Perhaps there is some logic
that prevents constant recycling if the parameter is set too low - I
have seen the feature work....
