Question

I was wondering how Asp.NET handles multiple requests ? E.g : When 1000 users request a page from an Asp.net installed web server, are they queued and handled in order or is there any other way to simultaneously handle those requests ?

I found some articles but they were too deep and long, I need a couple of quick answers to my question?

Thank you very much.

Edit :

I was reading Threads in a C# book and I wondered how asp.net handles multiple requests. Is it creating a thread for each requests or putting them into a queue for later handling or any way else?

Aaron, you may want to check out these Stack Overflow posts:

• Is ASP.NET multithreaded (how does it execute requests)
• Can an ASP.NET worker thread handle multiple requests at once?

I think that both the questions and the answers of the above posts may resolve your query.
