THE PROBLEM: After my ASP.NET website sits idle for more than 20 mins the next request is very slow. The reason is that the application domain is flushed from IIS and the application needs to be recompiled. This was as annoying as it was affecting the traffic to my web site. Changing the processModel settings in the machine.config would solve the problem but my web-hosting provider would not give me access. THE SOLUTION: This windows service solves the problem by requesting a list of web pages at a configurable amount of time in affect keeping the web site "alive". My application domain cache no longer times out and users no longer experience unacceptable response times on my web site. This solution works great for DotNetNuke, Community Server and SQL Reporting Services applications. The service is effective when installed on any computer with a permanent internet connection (T1, Cable, DSL...). Unlike similar product, you get the source code which is simple to modify.
