I've been using things like Firebug and YSlow, so I'm not really looking for advice on increasing page load speeds, but I'm wondering does extra imports or using, especially if your importing or using classes that aren't necessary, cause a page to load slower?

View 3 RepliesI know its a common question. But I want to share something. Actually I am working on e-commerce portal. It consists of 32000 products with around 2500 categories. I used 3-tier architechture for this project.Everyting is coming using stored procedures. I used master pages as well.But still I am fighting with the performance issue. Can anyone pls tell me some usefull steps to increase the speed of the website.Its taking ages to load the pages. please look at the site
View 2 RepliesI have a page that has 5 sections. Each section takes about 1 second to render.
Page_Load()
{
RenderSection1(); //1 sec
RenderSection2(); //1 sec
RenderSection3(); //1 sec
RenderSection4(); //1 sec
RenderSection5(); //1 sec
}
I would like to speed up the loading of this page. But at the same time make sure that it don't slow down performance of other parts of web application and also do not crash the IIS.
The are several approaches:
Use AJAX requests. Needs to be MVC style requests to Controller or Web Service. Using UpdatePanel around each section will not work - since if I try to submit refreshes to multiple UpdatePanels at the same time using approach here: [URL], the last request will always win: [URL] Use ASP.NET threads described in answer to right way to create thread in ASP.NET web application. So I would use a separate thread for each call: RenderSection1, RenderSection2, etc... Move the logic that takes up time, usually DB requests, into Application Service class in another DLL or External Web Service. Something like
OrderDTO GetDataForViewOrder(int orderID)
{
}
and use multiple threads in that DLL. This approach seems to provide the best scalability, but also introduces UI details into Application Services layer.
I am curious to know that how we can make web site development much faster. I am specific about asp.net.
As far as my knowledge is concern, we can make asp.net website development faster by
Using Log4Net - to capture logging information Entity framework - to increase database operation speed.
So, is there other tools also which we can use to optimize the development process?
If you have used in any of your project, whether it was a small project or large.
CWe've internal application written in ASP.NET, AJAX, SQL 2005. The problem is that sometimes response time (post back) is raising up to 10-30 second for some reson. The only way to make it faster is to restart browser (IE). Then it works really fast.
I have no clue what is causing this. Maybe it's viewstate, browser cache, browser memory clogging - I DON'T KNOW. The only thing I know is when I shut and reopen browser it's working fine. If I leave it open and come back in an hour or two it's really slow.
Have a look at this link.Web pageIf I want to have this kind of speed in my page load which consists of many thumbnail images. It that image is stored in database or in file system.What measures to take to achive this kind of speed like indexing, denormalization, caching and what else?

Can any jquery plugin be useful for me?
Over the last week I've been investigating an issue for one of our clients whereby the initial page load following a deployment of their website takes around 1 minute, resulting in unacceptable downtime for end users. This was happening not only for code deplyments (bin dll's and .config files) but also if there were large numbers of .aspx pages updated. For code deployments it's not an issue, but for aspx updates it is; in this particular scenario, we are making use of a 3rd party content management system (RedDot from OpenText) in which every page of the site is published out as a distinct .aspx page. This means that for this website there's somewhere in the region of 2,400 separate .aspx pages. I realise this isn't an ideal situation but we're working within the constraints of the CMS, and we managed to correlate the instances where the site was unresponsive with App pool restarts, which also corresponded to publications of of .aspx pages.
I found an article by Tess Ferandez [URL] which describes all the reasons why the app pool may restart, and it does seem that if more than 15 .aspx pages are changed then the app pool will recycle and the pages will be re-compiled. Another msdn article [URL] then gave me a few pointers on how to start addressing this problem, and for the moment I've set a flag on the compilation options to prevent batch compilation:
<compilation batch="false">
This means that the initial page load now takes around 6 seconds instead of 1 minute, which is a great improvement. However, I also used the "Compilations Total" performance counter to investigate the number of pages that have been compiled by ASP.NET for my site and was quite surprised that the total number of pages that get compiled peaks at 44, which is odd given that there are 2,400 aspx pages in the site. If the batch flag is set to false, the counter slowly increments by 1 page at a time as you click around on the site; if batch mode is true, the initial compilation takes the number straight to 44 over the course of ~60 seconds. What I'm really struggling to understand is why all 2,400 pages aren't compiled. Does anyone have any inside info on what might be going on as all the documentation I've read seems to indicate that all of the pages should be compiled and this counter should be much higher.
I have a gridview that displays query results on a reporting page for a "home-grown" CRM application. From the gridview, a link can be clicked which opens a modal window that contains an iframe linked to a "details" page where record specific info can be viewed/altered. On the details page there are 10 or so dropdownlists (ddls) that are bound every time the page is called. The ddls are bound using a method similar to the example below. I am looking for a way top speed things up a bit. The details page could be called 10-20 times in one session and every time the page loads these ddls have to be bound from the same methods but for different records. What are some options for speeding up the load time for this page??

i am working on my master site, and i want to add an image that increases its lenght as the website's length increases...
but im not sure how to do that, i know it's possible because i've seen it done on banners, but im not completely sure how to do it.
i see that my site is a little slow in my localhost it is fast but in the server not but i see that videos are displayed without problems so i dont think that is from bandwith but i am not sure which are the main things that make a page go slow? sessions can be one of that?? or connections with database??or something else?

I am following the Nerd Dinner tutorial as I'm learning ASP.NET MVC, and I am currently on Step 3: Building the Model. One part of this section discusses how to integrate validation and business rule logic with the model classes. All this makes perfect sense. However, in the case of this source code, the author only validates one class: Dinner.
What I am wondering is, say I have multiple classes that need validation (Dinner, Guest, etc). It doesn't seem smart to me to repeatedly write these two methods in the partial class:
[code]....
This doesn't "feel" right, but I wanted to check with SO to get opinions of individuals smarter than me on this. I also tested it out, and it seems that the partial keyword on the OnValidate method is causing problems (understandably so). This doesn't seem possible to fix (but I could very well be wrong).

View 5 RepliesI am taking some time to learn how to develop asp.net mvc2 websites, but I'm used to working directly off IIS instead of the built-in web server that uses the random ports when you hit F5.
but I've noticed that using the built-in webserver, requests fly and are immediate. I am using only the default project with the Home and About pages as it comes out of the New ASP.NET MVC 2 Project settings, no database connections, nothing beyond the base install...
but when I setup the IIS website and pointed it to the same directory, each request takes at least 3-5 seconds to complete, sometimes more. this isn't just the "load" on the first request. EVERY request takes this long on IIS. but if I F5 and test the project once again, everything zips and the responses are immediate.
Are you experienced with both ASP.NET and WPF coding? If so, I'll be grateful if you'll share your experience, We are estimating a 100-screen WPF project. Our estimation methodology involves characterizing the complexity of each screen. We then apply a standard number for the development time, based on the complexity and the technology. The standard number is based on the developer being good, not a super-star.
For example, here's a screen:
