Hello,

I have a problem running ASP.NET on a Windows 2000 Server. Sometimes the
memory usage grows from 70 MB up to 500 MB where it stays only for a minute.
After this it will go back to about 250-300 MB and stays there.

Is there any way to get more detailed information about what is currently
used in memory?

Look at the performance counters in control panel -> administrative options.

These can give more infomation that task manager.

I would look at tools from groups like sys internals if you want to see what
is going on. You might have to go to non-free tools from the parent company
winternals.

High memory usage is fairly normal and will reduce if other processes need
memory. This has to do with the way the garbage collector works. It uses
less cycles to leave garbage in memory until memory is needed than to clear
each object as it is no longer in use. I am not stating you should not
figure it out, but it may just be an artifact of .NET.
