getting more memory for asp.net 1.1

[kevin goff]

Does anyone know if asp.net will be able to use more memory if I upgrade to
a Extended 64 bit machine?

Thanks,
KG

32 bit computers can handle up to 4 GB of RAM.
64 bit computers can handle a relatively unlimited amount of RAM.

asp.net is compiled without any special flags. Therefore even on an
extended 64 bit machine am i bound to either 3GB or 4GB. Anyone know which?

My question is -- is there a memory benefit to running asp.net v 1.1 on an
Extended 64bit machine.

Hi, Kevin.

From : http://msdn.microsoft.com/theshow/tr...ranscript.aspx

"There is a flag in the executable, in the binary file itself, in the header file itself,
that tells the operating system in the 32-bit world that you can take advantage
up to 3 gigabytes of memory.

If you've heard about this large address aware flag that is around that is available
in Visual Studio, in the tools, it is just a flag telling the operating system, my
application
understands 32-bit up to 3 gigabytes of memory and knows how to handle that.

In 64-bit what you get immediately is an additional gigabyte.

In 64-bit Windows, each 32-bit process that has this flag set
in his executable header has up to 4 gigabytes of memory available."
