.NET GC and updates
-
Hi guys, I know this is a borderline programming question, but there's no coding involved, so it should be safe.:-O Several months ago, I ran into a problem where one of our .NET Win32 services has problems slowly growing in memory. Eventually, this impacts performance until it must be restarted. As I hunted for solutions, I discovered that there was a bug in .NET where the large-object portion of .NET's GC will leak memory occasionally. It just so happens that this particular exe deals almost exclusively in objects that fit into the large-object portion of the GC. I've done lots of other work to see what I could do about this, but all indications are that the GC is at fault. So, does anyone know of information indicating that MS will fix this soon? Maybe in the .NET Framework version 1.1? John :D

Have you tried MS support? Despite common belief, I had very good experiences with the SQL Server 2k team, and they can be very responsive if you provide them a working sample (or should I say a "non-working" sample :) ). I see dumb people
