I have a simple WCF service hosted in IIS7.5 exposed over a wsHttp binding using message security and InstanceContextMode.PerCall
I have a simple UI that spins up a configurable number of threads, each calling the service.
I have added the perfmon counter ServiceModel4.Instances. Regardless of the number of threads created and calling the service, perfmon shows that the service creates a maximum of 10 Instances.
My client config is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<binding name="WSHttpBinding_IService3">
<security mode="Message">
<transport clientCredentialType="Windows" proxyCredentialType="None"
realm="" />
<message clientCredentialType="Windows" negotiateServiceCredential="true"
algorithmSuite="Default" establishSecurityContext="false" />
</security>
</binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<client>
<endpoint address="http://localhost/NGCInstancing/Service3.svc/~/Service3.svc"
binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="WSHttpBinding_IService3"
contract="NGCSecPerCall.IService3" name="WSHttpBinding_IService3">
<identity>
<servicePrincipalName value="host/RB-T510" />
</identity>
</endpoint>
</client>
</system.serviceModel>
</configuration>
My service config is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<system.serviceModel>
<configuration>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="SecPerCallBehaviour">
<serviceThrottling maxConcurrentCalls="30" maxConcurrentSessions="1000"
maxConcurrentInstances="30" />
