Lock-free session state module for ASP.NET

This module is a work-around for ASP.NET session lock. It allows to execute slow requests in parallel. Each request can use a session state in read/write mode.

It may be not safe, but can help you enhance site performance if other solutions are not available.

BTW, the best solution is to use read-only session state on all pages except the authentication.

Usage

HashTable module

Uses Hashtable-based implementation from MSDN.

  • Install the package.

    Install-Package Heavysoft.LockFreeSessionState.HashTable
    
  • These lines will be added to web.config:

      <system.webServer>
        <modules>
          <remove name="Session" />
          <add name="Session" type="Heavysoft.Web.SessionState.HashTableSessionStateModule,Heavysoft.LockFreeSessionState.HashTable,PublicKeyToken=12eed1a4d3dc558d" />      
        </modules>
      </system.webServer>
  • Lock-free session module will be loaded instead of the standard ASP.NET SessionStateModule.
