Hi all, My site has gone down 2x in the past week with a 'System.OutOfMemoryException'. My hosting provider says that it is b/c my memory limit for the app pool (512MB) is being exceeded and the app pool shuts down. A search for this exception on the DNN forums brings up results mostly about problems with caching. I don't know that my site's problem has to do with caching; the only modules set to cache (cache time > 0) are text/html modules. But, just in case, here is the info about caching on my site. PageBlaster has been turned off for a few weeks now (unfortunately). IIS is handling compression. My caching settings for the site are:
DNN 4.5.5
Page State Persistence: Page
Module Caching Method: Memory
Performance Setting: Moderate Caching
Authenticated Cacheability: Public
Compression Setting: No Compression
Use Whitespace Filter: No My questions are: - What sorts of things cause this type of exception. What can cause the memory usage to spike like this?
- Can I prevent it somehow?
- Might moving the Module Caching Method to "Disk" instead of "Memory" address the issue? What are the potential disadvantages of this?
