QuestionGarbage Collector query Pin

Hi
Don't know if anyone can help.
I have an application running on a server that daily runs a batch of data files through itself, and updates a database with the information.
Someone has to click a 'Go' button, so there is someone monitoring it as it's running.

When I run it on my development machine I can watch the memory go up in Task Manager and then it appears that the GC kicks in and the application never reaches more than 10Mb above it's original memory usage.

When run on the Server (where many more application are running, and there is a total of 8Gb of RAM) the application just grows and grows. We don't let it get above 300Mb. We stop the job and restart it.

Does anyone know if this is OK? Is there a way of forcing the GC to tidy up? There's around 3.5 Gb memory available on the server whilst the app is running, so maybe the GC thinks 'I don't need to do anything yet'. Or maybe the app needs to take a breather or something to allow the GC time to do what it needs to do.

Hope someone can throw some light on the matter

Thanks

Jugs
