Multiple virtual directories on a single physical directory

Folder is locally located.
Every virtual directory runs as a seperate process under
IIS and may be due to occupation by another process on the
resource(ASP file), it may give the denial to the resource.
Just the ideas, plz correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks,
Faraz.

Based on what you are saying, I do not think multiple virtual directories
pointing to the same physical directory has any IIS-related limitation. We
run stress which pegs the CPU at 100% accessing resources in multiple vdirs
mapping to the same physical directory without problems.

If the resources returning a blank page is some dynamic app in the virtual
directory, you may want to look at the scalability of that application.
