In reference to this Outages thread:
Win2 - looking for thelong term solution
(though I wouldn’t have to post this here if we could reply to outages threads:P)
I’m just curious - this “four-letter” domain that is causing so much grief - is it a legitimate business site, or some cheap marketing thing?
I’d really like to see it, just to know why it’s getting so many visits that it takes down an whole server! If it’s so big, shouldn’t it be on a VPS or dedicated box?
They won’t tell you :rolleyes:
We plan to move this site off within the next 72 hours. The site only caused slowness this morning and we resolved it. We continue to monitor it and atm the site performs fine.
We unfortunately cannot reveal details about the site. Its a large commercial site and the owner believes that a shared account is the best place to host it 
We don’t want to seek revenge… really… well, maybe just a bit. 
I assume Jodo’s TOS policy gives you the right to refuse service if their activities interfere with others in the shared environment. But hopefully you can work something out. Good luck! 
We would have gotten rid of the customer immediately if his site was continuously hammering the server.
That is not the case, we are only speculating that his site caused a slow period (about 10 minutes) on the server Win2 this morning. And since the site is quite large, we have decided to move it off win2.
Well, I don?t know. But I can tell that I have had problems with veeryy slow sites on win2 for a long time now, several weeks. And I have very often problems with this error message:
Exception of type System.OutOfMemoryException was thrown.
Is this an error I get due to this?
I have posted tickets some times, but usually I get an answer telling that my site is running fine… hmm
I get this error so often so I don?t really care about posting tickets anymore…instead beginning thinking of moving to an other host instead.
an outofmemory error is a totally different issue. I suggest you open a ticket. PM me the ticket ID also and I’d investigate
Win2 has not experienced any slowness since Stephen’s post. We have all services monitored and during any slowness, we are alerted
OutOfMemory is totally different, and obviously in ASP.NET, if you can send mea PM with your domain, and the exact url and location to get this error I can look into it.
The problem is theoutofmemory exception fixes itself automatically as asp.net resizes its memory allocations, so by the time you submit a ticket, it probably is auto-fixed by windows, but I can take a look at your domain and make it so that the outofmemory exception should not happen,but I must have the domain info to do this.
Also, make sure your code is not using up heaps of memory itself. Look into whether the error is happening at the SAME LINE OF CODE. If so, then chances are it’s your code, not the server. Code bugs are, after all more common than server problems.
An endless loop perhaps or overflowing the call stack… so check exactly where it happens in your code first and see if there’s any pattern there.

Are you using DNN (DotNetNuke) or another .NET application?
I was getting them for a while on another server and I believe everything got corrected for me.
Yep, win10 you were having an issue with that on, but we modified some settings for your site(app pool) to fix it, the same thing I may need to do for this one.

That would be the one.
