hi rich,
my server runs side-by-side with 1.1 and 2.0, and i run a bunch of asp.net
web sites on it. one performance impact i can think of is that you have a
pair of w3wp.exe processes instead of just one. on my server at the moment,
one is 150Mb and the other is taking up 250Mb, but that obviously depends on
traffic and the implementation of your site, session / cache etc. i can't
imagine having 2 processes makes a whole lot of difference because the
footprint of the process itself is comparatively small. whether you rack up
memory usage in one 'big' process or two smaller ones it probably doesn't
make much difference.
you never know, it might even be faster to have two separate processes, with
greater room for parallelisation in a multi-core CPU. that's a very
unqualified opinion though!

Hi,
I know HOW to run these side by side. But what is the performance
impact??? Microsoft make a big deal about how it is supported, but provide
no guidelines as to potential performace or capacity considerations.
Is it much greater than the cost of an additional application pool of the
same version?
Anybody have any real world experience, or know of any metrics?
I've found it really hard to find info on this.
Thanks
Rich
