Huge SharePoint Memory Leak Discovered that can impact all MOSS 2007 Environments.

The other day I was browsing the interwebs, reading up on disposal patterns for SharePoint OM - to keep fresh on any changes that may have occurred in guidance - when I ran across a big post by Todd Carter.

Todd found a memory leak in the way that SharePoint's HttpApplicationFactory handles requests. So despite your best efforts to follow disposal patterns you could end up with an environment that is plagued by high memory consumption.

Please read Todd's blog for a detailed breakdown of the issue. I'm sure it will be just as eye-opening for you as it was for me.
