STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section of this article.



MORE INFORMATION
If you run the PerfMon.exe file to view the .NET CLR Memory counter, you may notice that many generation 2 garbage collectors (also known as full garbage collectors) are working in the program. You may also notice that these garbage collectors use a lot of processing capacity (memory). Because there is less memory available for the processing requirements of your program, the performance of the program slows down.
