Hi,

I have wcf service library. for debug i am using a console application to host the service. and in real time i am hosting it as windows service. The issue is that when i run as console application the service accepts more concurrent request (in the order of 100’s) and when i run the same code as windows service, the no of concurrent calls that is accepted is only handful some time less than 4.

i found some article about similar issue at http://bytes.com/topic/net/answers/264495-tcp-ip-server-windows-service-vs-application but i am still investigating this. any help or direction ???

Thanks

Regards
Venkat

Yes, WCF uses completion ports under the hood for all of our channel implementations. As it’s an internal implementation detail, you won’t find much in the core product docs. There are some blog posts, forum posts, and possibly perf whitepapers that touch on this though.

Hi?
I have one question for WCF ?Does WCF use or Supports IOCP in Data Communication?as we know,IOCP supplies a solution to improve pefermance of the Data communicatioin for a lot of cocurrent clients.There is the same problem
for WCF like too many cocurrent clients.So I like to know more detail about IOCP and WCF.Does WCF use or Supports IOCP?Is there any offical docs or aticles for this question?
I have posted this questioin on WCF forum at MSDN.http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/zh-CN/wcf/thread/3f45500d-6de0-4c90-8a62-f08e1ede053e;
But I still have some questions need to confirm,So do me a favour when you are free.

Thanks a lot.

Hi,
We are developping a service based application with WCF and experiencing the “MaxConcurrentSessions” issue
The problem is that in our case calls are asynchronous and the code is generated by the WCF Proxy Generator, any idea about how to safely close the proxy?
Thanks

Victor

[...] In addition, if the service throttling settings are not configured carefully for that service, a large number of requests will practically consume all the available resources (If that happens, the server will stop processing additional requests and you may run into a OutOfMemory exception as well). For more information about Service Throttling, I recommend this Kenny Wolf’s post. [...]

Alex, we don’t have a built-in feature to WCF like what you are asking for. You could start a timer within your service method though.

Scott, the reason you are hitting MaxConcurrentSessions is because each TCP channel is a session, and the MaxConcurrentSessions throttle applies to the channels being accepted. It’s independent of InstanceContextMode.
