IIS 6 slows down ASP pages



IIS 6 slows down ASP pages Aleks

iis security: Hi,

I have spent hours doing research on this item and found many people with
the same problem and no answers.

I have an ASP web application that connects to MS SQL 2000. I was running it
on Win2000 just fine, no problems whatsoever. We upgraded to Win2003 and now
ASP pages take forever to load.

This evidently is a BUG but there is no solutions posted anywhere, I need to
solve this before tomorrow morning, please PLEASE, if someone has solved
this problem any help is really appreciated.

Aleks

Not too much to elaborate, quite simply ASP pages are server slow.
Whenever I try to reach an ASP page it takes up to 40 seconds to be
displayed, this is totally unacceptable, where in win2000 takes 1-2 seconds.

I will be switching back to win2000 unless I found a solution soon, and yes
it has to be a bug of win2003.

Its just the first page, then speeds up. If you become idle like for a
minute and start navigating again the response is again slow.

I am surprised there are no solutions yet, this looks like a known issue
many people are having, still the responses are very vage. I checked IIS and
the rest of the sites work fine (HTML) and MS SQL is in perfect condition.

It is only ASP pages when they are first load, could take up to 40 seconds
to load, totally unacceptable.
Its not the site because it runs fine in IIS5. I am using the same
application pool as the rest of the websites, only ASP pages are afected, no
matter the code of the ASP page.

My server is exactly the same, same network connections, same everything
else, just win2k was upgraded to win2003.

By the way, this happens right away, not 20 or 60 minutes after the session
has begun

All ASP pages or just those connecting to SQL? Have you tested a
Hello World page? First and subsequent requests?

First, it's not a bug. There are many changes to the IIS6 model as
well as additional settings you may have issues with. In addition,
you have a new operating system, server, network connections and many
other things that can be different.

But until you test your code rationally, or at least provide enough
details on server configuration, code samples, etc, there's no way
you'll get this tracked down.

Well, it's not necessarily a bug, but I really couldn't say for sure since
you haven't included a lot of detail. Can you elaborate somewhat?

Is the Web Application Pool that the web app in configured to unload after x
minutes of inactivity? If so, then when you next hit a page inside that
application, an entire new worker process needs to be spun up, which takes
time. If you choose to disable this unloading, then IIS6 will work the same
way as IIS5 used to work in this respect.

Again, as Jason say, you haven't given us enough information about your
configuration. I would be very hesitant to say that this is a bug in IIS6
given that crucial information about your configuration is missing.

This machine was upgraded from Windows 2000 to Windows 2003?

Is IIS running IIS5 Isolation Mode? Or IIS6 Worker Process Mode?

When you use the ASP-related performance counters, what types of things do
you see?

Cheers
Ken

Never mind I went back to win2K, now everything works fine.
