.NET Data Access Performance Comparison

ASPAlliance.com : ASP and ASP.NET Tutorials : .NET Data Access Performance Comparison: "A summary of the results is listed below. What the summary doesn�t show, but which is also worth noting, is that while all the other tests had more-or-less constant requests per second for the duration of the test, the unclosed DataReader behaved erratically. It would run for several seconds with 20 or more requests per second, then it would simply hang, and process no requests at all for 15 or 20 seconds at a time. (Most likely this behavior is due to the connection pool being tapped out and not releasing connections until they time out. However, I have not proven this to be the case.) It was also the only test that resulted in HTTP errors, of which it recorded 90 during the 5 minute test run which included 2,141 requests.
