Hi,

Can somwone tell me how .net framework will behave when I'm running a
..net application in TS? Will .net framework load for every
user/prosess? If so, is it possible to share the .net framework between
users/prosesses?

How much memory will a user/prosess use when you run the .net
application?

Thanks,

Pål F

Every application, regardless of whether or not it is a .Net application,
and regardless of whether it is being run by a user via Terminal Services,
or how many instances of it are running simultaneously by however many
concurrent users, runs in its own process.

The .Net framework is simply a set of assemblies, COM objects, and registry
entries, in many ways no different than any other plaform. It doesn't
"load." It is "used." When a DLL is needed, an app loads a copy of that DLL
into memory, just like any other DLL.

As much as the application needs to run. Like any other application, this
depends on the application itself.

Every .NET application loads the runtime and the C runtime and some other
windows system DLL's.
While most of these DLL's are shared amongs processes, the JITted code is
not, that means that the "private memory" taken by a .NET application is
larger than a comparable native code application and this can be a problem
when multiple applications are run on the TS. Therefore it's strongly
advisable to ngen the application that will run on a TS, ngened assemblies
result in a larger portion of sharable code.
