Web Application Startup Time - How To Optimize
Jul 7, 2010
we have this problem but can't find a solution. We have an application that references something like 24 dlls. When you invoke the application the very first time (after the application is for any reason reset) it takes 25-40 seconds to start loading contents.
This is what we tried:
1. precompile and publish everything in release mode
2. removing pdbs from bin folder
3. put strong named assemblies into GAC
4. set application to debug = false
consider that the whole bin folder is composed by 24 dlls for a total size of 28MB. Just 4 of these dlls are strong named and they are more and less 25MB. Nothing seems changed. What happens EXACTLY when the application is started is something I couldn't find in any book nor forum/blog/post... What can we monitor more to find where the problem is?

How I can optimize my website's load page time?

I know that when a .NET web application first starts, it will be slow on first access. For that reason, I created a 'keep alive' page in the application that is requested every 8 minutes or so by a scheduled process. I hoped that that would be sufficient to prevent the application from 'unloading' and thus suffer from this initial long startup time again and again.
I can see in my logs that the 'keep alive' page is indeed triggered every 8 minutes, 24 hours a day. But when I actively start working in the application after some time, eg. the following day, I still have to wait a while for it to start up. Once the first page is loaded, all is fine again.

My application is running in a shared hosting environment. I do have a dedicated App Pool for my app. I've been doing some testing with 1st visits and precompile performance and have been tracking when my application starts up and shuts down.
In my Global.asax I have some logging code in Application_Start and Application_End. I can see from my logs generally when the application is idle and shuts down, then someone visits and it starts back up.
But, I also see cases where a shutdown is logged and then followed by another shutdown about 13 minutes later; without a startup in the middle.
I also see instances where there are two Startups in a row. I'm guessing these might be a recycle, but why wouldn't there be a shutdown log entry?
What I'd really like to know if there is a better way to track when my application starts, when it shuts down and if it is shutdown due to an idle pool, or from a recycle. I don't have access to the Windows Event Log so I need to do this from my app if possible.

I have a web page which has about 11 gridviews.Hence the page takes bout 15 seconds to load.The grids are 1 below the other.They are populated at the page load.
I need a solution to reduce page load time. Is there a way,where the gridview loads only if user scrolls to it. I donot want the user to make selection for everytime he wishes to see a gridview. The page should show gridview if its data is bound to it, not waiting for entire page gridviews to get populated.

From time to time my application crashes and I start getting all sorts of weird errors like "object reference not set to an instance of an object", that then turns to "failed to enable constraints..", etc. Sometimes then the application starts to work again properly by itself, and sometimes not until I restart IIS, after which everything is ok again.

One of my asp.net application keep on freezing time to time.
It is hosted in IIS6 and connected to SQL 2000.
My boos said it is my app memory leaking problem but I can not find out.
As I understood, IIS and SQL server will cause app frozen if they are not in correct configuration.

I have the following situation: excel-like application, that is accessible from internet.
2 users access it and I want the moment one user clicks on a cell, the other user to see that. (like in google documents).
My questions are:
Can I do this using standard UpdatePanel, while I keep the bandwidth usage to its minimum (in other words, only information for the current cell is passed, not the whole huge table), or should I implement my own ajax scripts on the page in order to get it optimized.How to do the updating : one way is to have a timer on the page and update it periodacally, the other way is to make a request and keep the connection opened till a change is made (using some heavy timeout, let's say 1 minute). Can you give me clues (like ajax libraries I can use, can I do this with the standard ajax controls in asp.net, ways to implement the live connection)?

Are all loaded on web app startup or only when they’re invoked (i.e., when their code is used)?

I used Castle Windsor before and had this routine that fired the certain method of all classes that implement a certain interface.If I recall correctly, the interface was IBootStrapTask and only had an excecute method. Then, for instance, I'd place all my route registrations in one of these, and know it get fired on application startup.Have to admit I did not understand the code to well, so I'm even more unsure how can I do this. I'm using structure map now. (still knowing very little about it)

My colleagues have create a website and there is a webpage which contains a Tab.
He Implement the tab with the following method:
1.Load all content of the page
2.Use javascript to display those group content as block and organize them into tabs.
3.when user click one tab, then acitve it, and hide all other tabs.
And these functions works very well, but the performance is bad:
1.Load all contents cost lots of time
2.It will show all content at first, and then shrink to a tab control. When the user see this, it might think this is a bug of our system.

If I have an object I need to store in viewstate, what kinds of things can I do to optimize the size it takes to store the object? Obviously storing the least amount of data will take less space, but aside from that, are there ways to architect the class, properties, attrbutes etc, that will effect how large the serialized output is?

I am in a partnership with someone. We are currently planning a system that can either use ASP.NET MVC or PHP With //Insert your framework here//. At this stage I can't say to much. Now the thing is I have a bit of experience with C# and MVC. I understand the concepts and actually wrote a fully functional blog with it. Now the other side of me wants to take PHP for a test drive. Will I waste my time? How good will ASP.NET MVC scale against PHP? I have to say that I love visual studio and the integration of MVC tools like quickly adding a view and a controller... Everything fits nicely. But the learning curve was quite steep and still is. I haven't really touched AJAX and Jquery yet but how easy is it to use it with ASP.NET MVC? I already googled and researched this but I want opinions of those who have been working with these technologies.

Now, my question is, if I have more than one page like Sample1.aspx and Sample2.aspx and I want to open [URL] directly, how can I do this. It is redirecting again to Sample.aspx. How can I achieve this.

I have around 10 "Excute SQL Task" events in sequence. Each Task uses the same two date parameters, which are declared at the top of each script. Is there a way to set these two at the start of the process instead of within each sql script?

I went to the Code Plex site and down load the latest toolkit. Then followed the instructions on how to set up the toolkit to the letter. When I first loaded the toolkit everything worked. But now every time I start up my computer and start VS all the AJAX controls I have on any page has the green squiggly line underneath it and the error says:Element <AJAX Control Name> is not a known element. This can occur if there is a compilation error in the web site, or the webconfig file is missing.The only thing I can do is delete the Ajax Toolkit tab then add the tab again and then "Choose Items..." and load the Ajax controls again. Then I have to add an AJAX control from the toolkit to any webpage. Once that is done all the green squiggly lines go away and I can continue.This is becoming an incredible pain.

When I start debugging my application using vs2010 before the default.aspx page is rendered the application_error event is fired in global.asax.
There is nothing happening in the page_load of the default.aspx screen.However, if I set a break point on the default.aspx page_load event and the application_error event here are the sequence of events: The page_load event of default.aspx is fired, there is no code to execute there so I hit F5 to continue. The application_error event is then fired.Here are some of the details from Server.GetLastError();
exception message is "File does not exist."
stack trace:
at System.Web.StaticFileHandler.GetFileInfo(String virtualPathWithPathInfo, String physicalPath, HttpResponse response)
at System.Web.StaticFileHandler.ProcessRequestInternal(HttpContext context, String overrideVirtualPath)
[code]...
I have absolutely no idea why this event is fired. Do all of the events in the Global.asax get fired on startup?There is nothing happening on the page_load so how can an error be thrown?

The web app uses XML from a web service, which is then transformed to HTML using XSLT. The app uses a HttpModule to get the XML using AddOnPreRequestHandlerExecuteAsync.
Classes Used:
XmlDocument - stores the xml.
XslCompiledTransform - stores the transform, is cached in Application.
Asynchronous HttpWebRequest using BeginGetResponse/EndGetResponse
HttpModule with hooked AddOnPreRequestHandlerExecuteAsync events.
I do not want to use the XPathDocument unless there are no other possible optimizations. It would take some complicated code to get all the XML together without the ability to write to the XmlDocument. There is additional XML that does not come from the web service that must also be added to the document.

on the aspx:
[code]....
The problem here is that instead of using Two repeaters, can we use only one?
We actually need the header to be separated from the contents using a different table row...
Edit: changed rptHeader's ItemTemplate's html element from <td> to <th> to be a little clearer.

I wanna bind atleast 30,000 records in a gridview from a sqlserver table. I want to bind only 50 records at a time with grid view. The grid has also paging and when I click next page then next 50 records should be shown and another next page's click another 50 records.
How can I optimize this thing. I want that If 30,000 records are binding then grid should be work as binded 50 records.

There's so much hype about ASP.NET MVC these days, but the truth is that ASP.NET webforms is not going anywhere for some time. Is there any way for current developers to optimize ASP.NET webforms to perform as fast as ASP.NET MVC?
I have noticed a significant difference in speed between ASP.NET MVC and ASP.NET webforms. MVC is a lot snappier and loads pages faster than webforms. Can I achieve the same with ASP.NET webforms by optimizing it? If yes, what would you recommend?

I have an asp.net mvc application that spawns a Process as follows:
Process p = new Process();
p.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
p.Exited += new EventHandler(p_Exited);
p.StartInfo.Arguments = "-interaction=nonstopmode " + inputpath;
p.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = dir;
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p.StartInfo.FileName = "pdflatex.exe";
p.StartInfo.LoadUserProfile = true;
p.Start();
p.WaitForExit();
Before going further, I need to know whether, e.g., pdflatex.exe is a managed code or a native code? Edit 1 I need to consider this because: (Hopely I am not wrong...) Each Asp.net application runs in an separate/isolated AppDomain as opposed to a separate/isolated process. A native executable cannot live in an AppDomain.to be continued.. Shortly speaking, I hope my site does not spawn a new process for each request. Because a process is more expensive than an application domain. Edit 2 My asp.net mvc application allows users to submit LaTeX input commands such as $ax^2+bx+c=0$ to be converted to a pdf file rendering an quadratic equation. Behind the scene, this web app will spawn a process executing pdflatex.exe. The job of pdflatex.exe is converting the LaTeX input commands to pdf document.
