Property Value

Type: System::Int32
The number of requests allowed to be queued. The default is 5000.

If the number of requests allowed in the queue is exceeded, ASP.NET begins returning "503 – Server Too Busy" errors to new requests. When this limit is reached, the system is operating in abnormal conditions. This might be a symptom of a malfunction or, maybe, just high load. Restarting (bouncing) the worker process might become the only way to prevent further problems.

The following code example shows how to use the RequestQueueLimit property.
