I hate to give away the resolution in the title of the blog since it takes away a lot of the suspense:) but I can‘t figure out a better way to name the blog posts and still keep them nicely searcheable so here we go...
This one has come up a number of times, in fact so many that I finally wrote a kb article on it a couple of years ago. I‘ll give you the link at the bottom of the blog post.
I specifically remember one time when I had a case on this. It was a Saturday at 2 am and this customer called in with a very urgent server down situation.
The on-call engineer‘s phone was out of reach for some reason so I got called, and it was one of those rare occasions where you hear the description of the problem and you just throw out a hunch and it happens to be right... Man was I glad to be right... You don‘t really feel like getting into debugging at 2 am in the morning on a Saturday when a party is going on in your apartment:) and thinking about it, I‘m pretty sure that the customer was happy to go home too.
Problem Description
We have continuous memory growth in our ASP.NET application. We don‘t cache much or use any session state so that doesn‘t seem to be the problem, but the memory usage just keeps increasing at a steady rate. An attempt to call GC.Collect shows that even a full collection does not reduce the memory usage.
Gathering data
I haven‘t really mentioned gathering other data than dumps before, but normally when we get memory issues or other performance issues we try to gather performance monitor logs to get a feel for what we are looking at.
The specific counters I would be interested in for memory issues would be:
Then of course it is always interesting to look at Process/% Processor Time, ASP.NET... /All counters and .NET CLR Exceptions/All counters, but they are usually not all that important for memory issues.
Along with this I would as usual try to take one adplus –hang dump when memory was relatively low (but after all applications were loaded) and one when it was high.
Debugging the issue
I have two dumps, one at 71 MB and the other one at 396 MB.
This issue is a little bit different than the memory issues in the past in that it is not on the .net GC heaps so I think it‘s time to look at how we do a comparison and figure out where our memory is going in such a case.
| Dump 1 | Dump 2 | How do we find this? | |
| Size of dumps | 71 MB | 396 MB | Windows explorer |
| GC Heaps | 3.5 MB | 25.2 MB | !eeheap –gc (GC Heap Size) |
| Loader Heaps | 11.8 MB | 130 MB | !eeheap –loader (Total Loader Heap Size) |
| Images (dlls) | 48.4 MB | 48.4 MB | !address (RegionUsageImage) |
| NT Heaps | 19.5 MB | 50.5 MB | !address (RegionUsageHeap) |
| Virtual Mem | 245.9 MB | 555.8 MB | !address (MEM_RESERVE + MEM_COMMIT) |
The perfmon log would be used to see the history of these through out the stress test or process lifetime. In fact, in the case I talked about earlier, it was the performance monitor output that made me zone in on the problem so quickly. So it is a very good complement to dumps in that it can help you spot potential issues, but of course, you don‘t know the absolute truth until you have looked at the memory dumps.
So what can we see from this? A lot of the increase in memory ~320 MB (396 – 71) seems to come from the loader heap and the NT Heaps... and anytime there is a substantial increase on the loader heap after all applications are loaded it needs to be looked at.
So what is on the loader heap? Assemblies, some class information, hmm... but there is no increase in images so it doesn‘t really seem like we have a huge increase in the number of .net assemblies/dlls loaded. And running lm (to list all modules) or !peb to list out all loaded modules confirms that there is not a huge number of assemblies. (I have omitted the output of these since it‘s so long, but please try these commands out in one of your own dumps)
Then what can it be???
Well, looking at the .NET Loading counters in the performance monitor log I find an increase from 15 current assemblies at startup to 5328 when I finish my stress test. WOW! If that is not an increase, I don‘t know what is...
Let‘s take a look at what these assemblies are...
If we run !dumpdomain to list the modules loaded in each domain we find that Domain 2 (/LM/w3svc/1/root/MemoryIssues-1-127843748880710932) has a large number of modules listed as unknown module, which means it doesn‘t have a physical path. In short this means that the module/assembly was dynamically created and not stored to disk, which is also why they don‘t show up with lm or !peb.

We can also get to these assemblies by running !DumpDynamicAssemblies (!dda) and find that we have 5315 dynamic assemblies in the /LM/w3svc/1/root/MemoryIssues-1-127843748880710932 domain.

Let‘s take a closer look at one of them (Assembly address: 0x1f2727a0 Module address: 0x1f272b90).
We can dump the module with !dumpmodule
0:000> !dumpmodule 0x1f272b90 Name Unknown Module dwFlags 0x00000080 Attribute PEFile Assembly 0x1f2727a0 LoaderHeap* 0x000f5004 TypeDefToMethodTableMap* 0x26572038 TypeRefToMethodTableMap* 0x26572050 MethodDefToDescMap* 0x265720b4 FieldDefToDescMap* 0x2657212c MemberRefToDescMap* 0x26572190 FileReferencesMap* 0x265722d8 AssemblyReferencesMap* 0x265722dc MetaData starts at 0x265644d8 (0x142c bytes)
From the raw MetaData we can see that it is an XMLSerialization.GeneratedAssembly and it seems to have the types XmlSerializationReaderPurchaseOrder and XMLSerializationWriterPurchaseOrder defined.

... or we can save it to disk
0:000> !dda -save g:\blog 0x1f2727a0 Writing Dynamic modules to disk.
In which case it gets saved as hbxmezcu.dll (per above), and we can open it up in reflector for example and from there find out that it contains a class Microsoft.XML.Serialization.GeneratedAssembly/PurchaseOrderSerializer.
If we don’t pass a specific assembly address the –save switch will save all dynamic assemblies.
In fact, if we dump a few more of these we find that they look almost identical. They define the same classes...
So, what are these and why are there so many of them? It would seem that whatever they are we would at least only need one.
Bringing it all together
My code is a slight rewrite of an XmlSerializer sample from MSDN.
Searching my code for PurchaseOrder, I find this line of code in page_load of one of my pages
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(PurchaseOrder), new XmlRootAttribute(""));
This would seem like a pretty innocent piece of code. We create an XMLSerializer for PurchaseOrder. But what happens under the covers?
If we take a look at the XmlSerializer constructor with Reflector we find that it calls
this.tempAssembly = XmlSerializer.GenerateTempAssembly(this.mapping, type, defaultNamespace, location, evidence);
which generates a temp (dynamic) assembly. So every time this code runs (i.e. every time the page is hit) it will generate a new assembly.
The reason it generates an assembly is that it needs to generate functions for serializing and deserializing and these need to reside somewhere.
Ok, fine... it creates an assembly, so what? When we’re done with it, it should just disappear right?
Well... an assembly is not an object on the GC Heap, the GC is really unaware of assemblies, so it won’t get garbage collected. The only way to get rid of assemblies in 1.0 and 1.1 is to unload the app domain in which it resides.
And therein lies the problem Dr Watson.
What is the solution?
The default constructors XmlSerializer(type) and XmlSerializer(type, defaultNameSpace) caches the dynamic assembly so if you use those constructors only one copy of the dynamic assembly needs to be created.
Seems pretty smart... why not do this in all constructors? Hmm... interesting idea, wonder why they didn’t think of that one:) Ok, the other constructors are used for special cases, and the assumption would be that you wouldn’t create a ton of the same XmlSerializers using those special cases, which would mean that we would cache a lot of items we later didn’t need and use up a lot of extra space. Sometimes you have to do what is good for the majority of the people.
So what do you do if you need to use one of the other constructors? My suggestion would be to cache the XmlSerializer if you need to use it often. Then it would only be created once.
For more info see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886385/en-us
Some other constructs that exhibit the same problems
Temporary assemblies are also used for regular expressions, as well as script blocks in XSL Transforms. In the case of the script blocks I would suggest using XSLT extension objects or cache the transform.
Have fun, and don’t play with XmlSerialization at 2 am in the morning on a Saturday night:)
