Hey there everyone, I was just wanting to checkin and see what the group here though about this. I am running a pretty basic installation of Umbraco 4 on my site. Recently my hosting company contacted me saying that I am constantly using more then the alloted 80 MBs of RAM on their server for my app pool.
This seems rather high to me anyway, but I was looking to see if anyone had a baseline metric on what sort of memory consumption Umbraco usually uses on other enviroments.
I consistently see 70+ MB for an app pool running umbraco sites. The amount of caching that occurs in umbraco probably has a lot to do with it, but there are some other things to take into consideration.
There may be something with using xslt scripts as well, as I have noted some issues there when embedding msxsl:scripts. .NET compiles these calls and loads the assembly into memory. It should not be much, but, every instance adds up.
Another item that may be of issue is ImageGen. The latest release fixed a problem for me where I had a single site using nearly 1GB of memory after a few hours time. A quick upgrade fixed the issue. Mind you, the site had several images, and high amounts of traffic.
If you need a US host that is versed with umbraco, feel free to drop me an email, I may be able to help. casey at neehouse dot com
We are running a quite large Umbraco site (approx. 1.000.000 pageviews a month, 12.000 articles). Memory usage is about 500mb for the dedicated application pool of this site. We have tried to lower it but that didn't work out the way we want (optimizing xslt's, cache tuning).

I regularly see 100mb+ memory consumed by Umbraco 4 sites with what I consider to be fairly low usage (~400 page views per day).

Casey,
Would you recommend using XSLT Extensions as opposed to msxsl scripts? i.e. compiled DLL's
That'll teach me not to copy and paste from MS Word....
is working on a reply...
