Hi Michael,

The same setting hasn't been changed since IIS 6.0.

In IIS mmc, click Application Pools. Right-click a pool and select Advanced
Settings. In Recycling section, you will see there are two settings:
Private Memory Limit (KB) and Virtual Memory Limit (KB) .

When any of these 2 settings are set, if the worker process exceeds the
private or virtual memory quota, IIS will recycle that pool which limits
the memory usage.

Please update here if you have any further question.

Thanks.

Sincerely,

WenJun Zhang
