    Hi,

    We have built a file sync solution using custom provider, to sync contents of two folders kept at two remote computers.
    However, this is throwing error "System.OutOfMemoryException" when the file size is about 1 GB.
    Can someone suggest how this issue can be fixed? Below is the stack trace:

    "Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown.

    Server stack trace:

    Hi,

    When you say "custom provider" I assume you are not using Microsoft Sync Framework's out-of-the-box File Sync Provider (correct me otherwise).

    When your destination endpoint requires file to be copied over, are you reading the entire 1GB file into a memory buffer ? That could explain out of memory exception. Microsoft's FileSyncProvider works around this by copying chunks of file instead of entire file (and has some other optimizations as well).

    See if copying blocks of file works for you.

    Hope this helps,
    Sameer

    PS: Also, if you are not using MSF's FileSyncProvider, do let us know why not - we value your feedback to improve our products.
