Increasing the Size of your Stack (.NET Memory Management: Part 3)

In the previous article I discussed a few of the benefits of stack allocation as well as a couple of C# keywords which help you to leverage those benefits. However, the one megabyte default stack size is too small for stack allocation to be used with a large dataset. Alternatively, in some threading situations one megabyte per thread/fiber can be too large and bottleneck your system. In this article I will discuss the different ways you can modify the stack size.
