Process Pooling Options

Process Pooling Properties

Process Pooling in Enterprise Configurations

Process Pooling is disabled if the application is configured to run as a slave node. In that case, process pooling can be configured from the master node. If this is a master node, you may check the first box for it to use Process Pooling. If not, the other options will be shadowed and unavailable.

Minimum and Maximum Pool

  • Minimum Pool: The minimum number of the application's processes to be kept in the pool at all times.
  • Maximum Pool: The maximum number of the application's processes which will be allowed to run at the same time. If the server load exceeds this setting, new requests are queued and served in FIFO (First In, First Out) order.

Automatically Reload

Check one of the Automatically Reload options if you want the application to automatically reload after the specified number of hours or daily, at the specified time. This setting configures whether the application's process pool should be automatically flushed and, if so, how often. You can specify that Web Application processes are closed and reopened after a specified number of hours. This ensures that the oldest processes get "refreshed" from time to time.

Note: Ideally, you should never have to use this setting (because a "properly" written program runs forever), but since "properly" written programs hardly ever exist, you may wish to use it. The default option is to not automatically reload the process pool.
