I have a very unusual problem with W3WP process (IIS Worker Process). It is not taking enough memory from my CPU to run faster. It is impacting my development work as it is taking way to long to pull up a local website. When I start the website from my localhost, W3WP start at roughly 50MB and takes nearly 10 min to spike upto 100MB.
Is there a way to make W3WP run fatser?
I am using a 64bit 3.4GHZ Quad Core i5 CPU with 8GB RAM. OS Windows 7 Enterprise Edition.
I went to IIS settings and changed the 'Worker Process'/'Change .Net Framework Version' from 2.XX to 4.XX. Also I have a dedicated app pool for my application and stopped all other applications. These changes made things a lot better that what it was.
