IIS Application Pool Not Controlled

risede

Basic Pleskian
I have a domain running in it's own IIS Application Pool. If I rdp into the server, in the task manager, I can see that this pool (w3wp.exe) is taking up 50% of the cpu.

I went into the domain through plesk and, under Application Pool, I checked "Switch on CPU monitoring", and then entered "25" for the "maximum cpu use %".

That did not control the process. So I restarted the app pool - went immediately back to 50%. I stopped & started the app pool - went immediately back to 50%. So finally, I rebooted the server and still the app pool went to 50%.

So is there a trick to getting this to work?

Any suggestions?
