问题
I have a web application that uses ASP.NET with "InProc" session handling. Normally, everything works fine, but a few hundred requests each day take significantly longer to run than normal. In the IIS logs, I can see that these pages (which usually require 2-5 seconds to run) are running for 20+ seconds.
I enabled Failed Request Tracing in Verbose mode, and found that the delay is happening in the AspNetSessionData section. In the example shown below, there was a 39-second gap between AspNetSessionDataBegin and AspNetSessionDataEnd.
I'm not sure what to do next. I can't find any reason for this delay, and I can't find any more logging features that could be enabled to tell me what's happening here. Does anyone know why this is happening, or have any suggestions for additional steps I can take to find the problem?
My app usually stores 1-5MB in session for each user, mostly cached data for searches. The server has plenty of available memory, and only runs about 50 users.

It could be caused by lock contention for the session state. Take a look at the last paragraph of MSDN's ASP.NET Session State Overview. See also K. Scott Allen's helpful post on this subject.
If a page is annotated with EnableSessionState="True" (or inherits the web.config default), then all requests for that page will acquire a write lock on the session state. All other requests that use session state -- even if they do not acquire a write lock -- are blocked until that request finishes.
If a page is annotated with EnableSessionState="ReadOnly", then the page will not acquire a write lock and so will not block other requests. (Though it may be blocked by another request holding the write lock.)
To eliminate this lock contention, you may want to implement your own [finer grained] locking around the HttpContext.Cache object or static WeakReferences. The latter is probably more efficient. (See pp. 118-122 of Ultra-Fast ASP.NET by Richard Kiessig.)

There is chance your are running up against the maximum amount of memory that Application Pool is allowed to consume, which causes a restart of the Application Pool (which would account for the delay you are seeing in accessing the session). The amount of memory on the server doesn't impact the amount of memory ASP.NET can use, this is controlled in the machine.config in the memoryLimit property and in IIS 6.0 later in IIS itself using the "Maximum memory used" property. Beyond that, have you considered alternatives to each user using 5 MB of session memory? This will not scale well at all and can cause a lot of issues while under load. Might caching be a more effective solution? Do the searches take so long that you need to do this, could the SQL/Database Setup be optimized to speed up your queries?
