recycle

I have this little test proggy that tracks PID's as they are created and shut down. I am investigating a problem that my proggy has found and would like to ask you about this in order to have a better idea on what's going on. When a windows process is started, it gets a PID but when the process is shut down, does the PID become retired (like a star basketballer's jersey number) or is it possible for a new, entirely unrelated, process to be created under that released PID? Thanks Yes, process IDs may be recycled by the system. They become available for this as soon as the last handle to the

I have a number of ASP.NET (4.0) web applications that appear to leak (a small amount) of memory during each request. It is such a small amount, that for most use-cases, it will not grow to become a problem for weeks or even months at a time.

I went in the other day and saw 4 w3wp.exe processes running (each with ~1.8GB memory being used) I assume that during the recycle process, it's not killing the old worker process and eventually I get out of memory exceptions on my website because the box only has 8GB memory. I can add memory to the box but I am concerned why these old processes are not being cleaned up. Are there any recommendations to
