WCF queue behavior for MaxConcurrentCalls

499 views Asked by At

I have a WCF service with the following settings:

  • Binding = WebHttpBinding
  • InstanceContextMode = Single
  • ConcurrencyMode = Multiple
  • MaxConcurrentSessions = a high value

The documentation states about MaxConcurrentCalls: the MaxConcurrentCalls property specifies the maximum number of messages actively processing across a ServiceHost object. Each channel can have one pending message that does not count against the value of MaxConcurrentCalls until begins to process it.

Several questions:

  • What does the sentence "Each channel can have one pending message that does not count against the value of MaxConcurrentCalls until begins to process it" exactly mean?
  • If the MaxConcurrentCalls tresshold is reached, are new TCP connections queued?
  • If the MaxConcurrentCalls tresshold is reached, are new requests on existing TCP connections queued (during pipe-lining)?
  • How to specify the length of those queues?

Thanks!

Rene
