MinFreeMemoryPercentageToActiveService is now respected

Scope

Minor

Version Introduced

4.5.1

Source Analyzer Status

Available

Change Description

This setting establishes the minimum memory that must be available on the server before a WCF service can be activated. It is designed to prevent xref:System.OutOfMemoryException?displayProperty=name exceptions. In the .NET Framework 4.5, this setting had no effect. In the .NET Framework 4.5.1, the setting is observed.

  • Quirked
  • Build-time break

Recommended Action

An exception occurs if the free memory available on the web server is less than the percentage defined by the configuration setting. Some WCF services that successfully started and ran in a constrained memory environment may now fail.

Affected APIs

  • Not detectable via API analysis
