title: Asp.Net/C# static variable persistence
body: <p>When I update the .dlls in my C# ASP.Net application, the transition is handled gracefully and the users are allowed to finish their requests before the code is switched over to the new code.</p>
  
  <p>My question is do the static variables reset when that is done or do they persist through the update (if of course the static objects themselves aren't updated in the code)?</p>
