My web server (IIS 5.0) runs only one intranet web application in Win2k
Server .For the first page alone, aspnet_wp consumes around 2-3 MB , but
doesn't release all. The first page is a search page which is used to
query a particular table with 10-15 parameters. It has got a datagrid
in it. All the database connections are properly closed and disposed,
datasets are disposed properly. But I still see some amount of memory
leak in it.

Does anyone have any idea on this ? Is there anything to do with the
way of loading data in datagrid or configurations in IIS ??????

Server Info :

Windows Server 2000 (Service Pack 4)
RAM - 4GB
Pentium III , 1400 MHz * 2 (Dual Processors)
IIS 5.0
Hard Drice : 60 GB

Maybe there isn't a leak at all, but garbage collection just hasn't run yet.
ASP.NET won't instantly release the memory if it doesn't need to. A leak
would be if it continued to consume more & more memory every time the page
was run over a long period of time.

Try sticking GC.Collect at the end of that page & see if the memory gets
released. If it does, then you don't have a leak -- it's just a normal GC
issue. You may want to take GC.Collect back out when you're done testing.
