  Website seems to hang randomly Reply Contact Hi Guys, I have a dedicated server with IIS7 running on it. My website is setup through IIS but I am getting random hangs. The website is written in ASP.NET. I can't seem to pin point the issue but it seems that if I leave the site for a little while (don't click anything) and then try and click a link, it hangs on "waiting for {domain name}". It can do this for a good while. Sometimes, doing CTRL + F5 will sort the issue and the website loads very fast then but I don't know what could be causing the initial hang.  Any ideas?

  Re: Website seems to hang randomly Reply Contact Hi Jeff,  Thanks for the response. Looking at the link you supplied, this would imply that once I stop changing things and uploading new .dll's the site will become generally quicker providing my code is up to scratch. So I have the speed issues at the moment because ASP is having to re-cache the classes I have. Is that correct?  On that note though, what if I haven't changed anything and the server should technically have chached what it needs but I still have random hang times. Any idea on this?

  Re: Website seems to hang randomly Reply Contact This also can be a client-side or networking issue. If you do not close the 'hang' browser window and keep waiting, will it return the page content finally? If so, open the site's property in IIS manager and configure logging, enable the 'time-taken' field. Try reproducing the problem again and then verify IIS log to see how long time is recorded. Furthermore, using tools like fiddler to monitor and capture networking traces may give us a more clear view of the issue.

It seems that when it is hanging (and doing nothing more that waiting for {IP}) then no logs are created. This would imply IIS is not the issue but is something to do with the connection. Does anyone have any ideas?
