Hi,

Is there still any reason to recycle 100% .net web apps?

At the time when our website was a hybrid of VB/COM/C++ we needed to
recycle the pool, to get rid off memory fragmentation, but with .net,
this should not be needed, is it?

The real reason I ask, is that we have a high traffic site, with
several webservers.
Now, when one is starting to recycle, it is noticeable. And due to our
installation scripts, the servers will recycle almost all together...
ouch!

I was looking for a way to, maybe, schedule the recycles, but then I
thought, why do we still recycle the pools?
