When does an ASP.NET application restart?

Hi group,

We have installed our first ASP.NET WebApp on our preproduction server. The
site stores some general user information in session variables that are
needed in every page. So loosing your session means you'll get an error (for
the time being).

Session is stored in-process, so whenever the WebApp restarts, session is
lost so logged on users will get an error.

But I wonder when this happens...

Changing web.config restarts the WebApp, and this seems very logical to me.
Copying a new DLL over an old DLL also restarts. But copying an RPT also
restarts! Is this normal? Will any change to any file in the WebApp cause a
restart? Or...?

Steven
