Hi,

We are observing that DLLHost.exe is growing in size each day..Is there any particular reason for that? Is there any setting in IIS which can close unterminated connections?
is there any setting which can optimise this
Thanks in Advance

Usually from what i've seen, it's due to the code. We had a web server running meftaframe xp's nfuse, no problems at all. We put a home grown web app on those servers, and boom dllhost would spike randomly killing the server.

I just setup a job that kills dllhost.exe every 8 hours. No complaints from customers or site crashes after that.

 
When I had dllhost growing it was due to some badly written asp of mine on the web server.
Make sure that your scripts release any objects (especially recordsets and connections, etc).
