Question

How to find out size of session in ASP.NET from web application?

Answer 1

If you’re trying to get the size of Session during runtime rather than in debug tracing, you might want to try something like this:

long totalSessionBytes = 0; BinaryFormatter b = new BinaryFormatter(); MemoryStream m; foreach(var obj in Session)  {   m = new MemoryStream();   b.Serialize(m, obj);   totalSessionBytes += m.Length; }
