Diagnose cause of long running requests in IIS 7.0
- by Shlomi Fruchter
We are running an ASP.NET web application on IIS 7.0, Windows Server 2008 R2, with SQL Server 2008 R2 for DB.
On weekends, when the traffic is high, the request queue length in the IIS servers increase (up to 800 requests) and then drops, every minute or so.
I can see that the servers are handling some requests which, according to the 'Current Requests' view in IIS Manager, are long running (thier Time Elapsed value ranges from 20 to 50 seconds).
Those requests are not necessarily heavy queries, actually, I can't understand why they are taking so long.
Can it be because the client is closing the connection on his side?
Thanks,
Shlomi
