ASP>NET MVC 3 Controller Concurrency Model

Question

What is the concurrency model behind aps.net MVC 3? I mean, when many users are accessing a aps.net MVC 3 website, do we have a new instance of controller for each request or the one controller is shared for one user session or all users?

Could you point to some proper documentation on this?

Yes, if you use the default controller factory, each request instantiates a new controller instance.

There's interesting reading here.

Yes, you get a single instance for each request which is disposed at the end of the request. The best documentation I know of for such details is the source code.

I described the flow which calls Controller.Dispose in this older question.
