thread restarting mid http request processing

I'm experiencing a really strange error at the moment, and was wondering if
anyone else has run into this.
This is a seemingly straightforward asp.net application -- i'm allowing the
user to make choices on a web form, collect the information, populate my
domain model, and then persist the domain model into session state which is
using the out of proc asp.net session state service.
The user behavior is that on a seemingly random interval, changes are simply
not persisted. Looking at the debugger, I can see that when this happens, m
y
thread responsible for processing the request is shut down and the request i
s
picked up by a new thread -- but apparently without the context of the
previous thread -- hence the data not being persisted.
Does anyone have any thoughts on why this is happening and how to go about
correcting?
tia,
_howardasp.net is thread agile, so switching threads is common. are you using any
STA components (vb6)? they will have this behavior in the agile model.

Hi Bruce,
no STA components - all asp.net

are you using thread local storage? it will have the same problem. how are
you storing the model data? also when do you update the session?

no explicit tls model data is stored as an actual session variable, so the
timing of it's persistance will be set by the normal control life cycle.
