Issue
The machine running AuthAnvil Password Server is having sever performance issues. Looking at the Task Manager processes reveals the "w3wp.exe" process is taking up more than 1 GB of memory, slowing down any other functions on this server.
Cause
On the turn of the new year (2013) from a leap year (2012) the AuthAnvil Password Server ran into a problem generating calendar-based results for reporting data. This caused a memory leak that would continue to use more memory until it hit a limit and released some of its resources. This cycle repeats indefinitely in most cases.
