Increase the buffer limit
You can increase the buffering limit if one of the following conditions is true:
| • |
The client is not a Web browser. |
| • |
You cannot redesign the application to take advantage of a paging technology, such as the GridView class. |
If you must increase the buffer limit, select a buffer limit that allows for the largest known response size. If you do not know the largest response size in advance, you can increase the buffer limit to a large value during testing. After you finish testing, use the largest value that is in the
sc-bytes field in the IIS log file for the response that is generated for the page.
To increase the buffering limit, follow these steps:
| 1. |
Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK. |
| 2. |
Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
cd /d %systemdrive%\inetpub\adminscripts |
| 3. |
Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
cscript.exe adsutil.vbs SET w3svc/aspbufferinglimit LimitSize Note LimitSize represents the buffering limit size in bytes. For example, the number 67108864 sets the buffering limit size to 64 MB. |
To confirm that the buffer limit is set correctly, follow these steps:
| 1. |
Click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK. |
| 2. |
Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
cd /d %systemdrive%\inetpub\adminscripts |
| 3. |
Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
cscript.exe adsutil.vbs GET w3svc/aspbufferinglimit |
