Our IIS5 webserver runs fast enough. It however sometimes stops responding
from too much traffic.

Our machine is also a bit faster than yours. P-III/500 w/ 256 mb RAM.

The performance is very good in general.

I've seen something similar. I'm wondering if anyone knows whether some of
the parameter setting for IIS4 (like ServerListenBacklog and
MaxEndpointConnections) need to be set for IIS5

I am a network administrator for both Unix/Linux machines and NT servers. I
have found that overall, the NT servers deal with high end traffic just a
tad better than the others. However, you need to make sure that enable
session state is unchecked in Home Directory/Configuration/App Options for
the website. I will, however, concede that the NT servers require a restart
more often whereas I have some servers that have been running problem free
for months.

Please note that I am talking about extremely high volume sites that get an
excess of 300,000 unique sessions per day.

You be the judge which is better.
