Property Value

The percentage of physical memory in use, expressed as an integer value from 1 to 100. The default is zero, which indicates that MemoryCache instances manage their own memory based on the amount of memory that is installed on the computer.

Attributes

Remarks

If the total amount of physical memory in use on the system exceeds the specified limit, the memory cache implementation removes cache entries.

The setting for the PhysicalMemoryLimit property can be read from physicalMemoryLimitPercentage configuration attribute in the application configuration file. Alternatively, the value can be passed when the MemoryCache class is initialized.

For more information about how to configure the cache, see <namedCaches> Element (Cache Settings).
