Memory Management Question

[stevozilik]

Hi,

I'm looking to upgrade some older .Net Framework TCP server framework. I remember at the time (and possibly still), the biggest challenge I had was memory leaks, and CPU consumption.

At the time Tasks were a new thing and the recommendation was to utilise patterns like SocketAsyncEventArgs to improve both memory and CPU, although I still think it's leaking.

Ultimately some of it was down to Windows OS unmanaged memory pinning/fragmentation, which I never really solved.

What's the situation these days, and I guess specifically with this library in regards to Memory Management/leaks. How much is 'taken care of' by the framework, and what can consumers do to avoid memory leaks (could not see anything in the documentation)?

Kind regards, Stefan
