below.
Stack Trace:
[OutOfMemoryException: Exception of type
System.OutOfMemoryException was thrown.]
This problem may occur in situations where the server is
under a heavy load. For example, this problem may occur if the portal contains
more than 100 subsites, and one or more Web pages that are contained in
each of the 100 subsites is accessed at the same time.
To work around this problem, configure the
MSSharePointPortalAppPool application pool to use more than one Microsoft
Internet Information Services (IIS) Worker Process (W3wp.exe). For example, if
your portal contains 120 subsites, configure the MSSharePointPortalAppPool
application pool to use one worker process for each group of 30 subsites.
Therefore, the MSSharePointPortalAppPool application pool uses four IIS worker
processes.
For more information about how to configure a Web garden
in Microsoft Internet Information Services 6.0 (IIS 6), where an application
pool uses more than one worker process, see the "Configuring Servers for
Applications" topic in the Server Administration Guide of the IIS 6.0
documentation. To view the IIS 6.0 documentation, visit the following Microsoft
Web site:
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.

and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
