Examples

The following code example shows how to use the RequestQueueLimit property.

// Get the current RequestQueueLimit property value.
int requestQueueLimit =
    processModelSection.RequestQueueLimit;

// Set the RequestQueueLimit property to 10240.
processModelSection.RequestQueueLimit = 10240;

' Get the current RequestQueueLimit property value.
   Dim requestQueueLimit As Integer = _
   processModelSection.RequestQueueLimit

' Set the RequestQueueLimit property to 10240.
processModelSection.RequestQueueLimit = 10240

Remarks

If the number of requests allowed in the queue is exceeded, ASP.NET begins returning "503 - Server Too Busy" errors to new requests. When this limit is reached, the system is operating in abnormal conditions. This might be a symptom of a malfunction or, maybe, just high load. Restarting (bouncing) the worker process might become the only way to prevent further problems.
