Folks,

There was an issue in 1.0 with arrays greater than 16MB not being collected.

Was this completely fixed in 1.1 or just improved.

Anyone have the details on this?

who knows? MS claims its fixed, I still see folk complaining about it in
here. So it depends on who is doing the asking. What problems are you
seeing?

We are seeing the leak on 1.1.

Large arrays are not being cleaned up.

yup. Report it to microsoft thru a trouble ticket. Maybe, eventually, they
will repair the annoyance.

on second thought, since you came here to get help why don't you explain
what it is you are doing and what you are seeing that leads you conclude
that there is a memory leak. I dear say that 16mb in an array seems like a
suspect design but I'm not familiar with your architecture so I won't say it
out loud.

You need to find out where they are rooted (if they are rooted.)  If they
aren't rooted, it's possible that you might be ecountering a bug that causes
Timers not to fire and objects to not get cleaned up.  I've encountered this
issue many times over the past few months.

Note that this is a post-sp1 fix.

The best thing for you to do would be to get a dump and use SOS to analyze
your memory usage.
