How to detect if the large object heap is causing the out of memory exception

I'm having System.OutOfMemory exceptions in my .NET开发者_StackOverflow Windows Service. I'm not sure what's causing it. I suspect fragmentation in the large object heap but i'm not sure. How can I verify my hypothesis?

I can use debuggers of all kinds, but what in the debugger should I look for?

Thanks

CLR Profiler is your friend for this. It can attach to a Windows Service and gather all the metrics you need to find what's the culprit when your OOM hits.

I guess this happens randomly and never when you are debugging on your machine, right?

What you can do is to create a dump and analyse the remains.

You need to turn to the true master of debugging, Tess. She is the Chuck Norris of debugging.

Check this out, for example.
