Do you mean you built an MTDLL for use with IIS/ASP? I'm still not sure just what is happening with ASP. I'm basically looking for a fast way to share small amounts of data that needs to remain global and persistent among all instances of an object. The equivalent of sharing memory among several processes.
I concerned about what happens with the overhead factor when you use a COM EXE as a "global content holder" for objects instanced from one or more MTDLL's (this is what Nick was suggesting, no? ). Isn't there a way to achieve the same end with the MTDLL itself?
