the web layer is coded in asp.net with pages marked as async. Yes, the recommended way to code for aync is using the RegisterAsyncTask
I have a problem now - there are a few pages that have used AutoResetEvent and ManualResetEvent for aync and not the standard RegisterAsyncTask.
Would these objects servicing the async calls, use up the worker threads from the threadpool? (not recommended, as this would exhaust the worker threads and the server would not be able to serve other client requests
OR
would they use the IO threads? (typically IO threads are used for async calls with the RegsterAsyncTask, this is desired)
I would need to propose change to these pages based on your insights. Any opinions please?
