Re: Memory increasing even when in debug-break

Hi John,

Thanks for your feedback!

First, I do not think the bug documented by the KB is the same as yours.
Because the KB says that this problem only exists if Mscoree.dll and
Corperfmonext.dll are loaded and unloaded repeatedly in your application's
process, which is not true for your scenario. Additionally, what you are
experiencing is a memory leak which is not the same symptom as handle
leak(although it may introduce some type of memory increasing in certain
situation). To further ensure if your problematic .Net1.1 application is
experiencing the handle leak, you may explicit add "Handle Count" column in
the Task Manager and monitor this column to see if it increases from time
to time.

Have you tried to use the "Private Bytes" and ".NET # of Bytes in all
Heaps" to identify if the .Net1.1 leak is a managed one or unmanaged one?
If it is a native leak, we normally use DebugDiag tool to further
troubleshoot the root cause. The link below contains a training sample:
http://blogs.msdn.com/debugdiag/archive/2006/03/28/563113.aspx

Additionally, can you reproduce this issue in a little sample project? It
would be helpful to reproduce this locally so that I give it a local
debugging. Also, the 2 KBs below talk about another 2 memory leak problems
in .Net1.1:
"FIX: A memory leak may occur when COM objects are passed as VARIANT in the
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/839047
"FIX: A memory leak may occur, and Visual Studio .NET 2003 may unexpectedly
close and then restart when you compile a large solution that contains more
than 65 projects"
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909766

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
