Increasing ASP.NET performance

This by far the easiest way to increase your ASP.NET page performance. Put this on top of .aspx file.

<%@ OutputCache Duration="60" VaryByParam= "None"  %>

More detail of this technique is taken from this site, as you need to know the caveats and situation where this technique can benefits.

Did a quick benchmark using jMeter on a simple site with themes, LDAP connecting, permission checking to database, and constructing menu, with 10 concurrent threads hitting the server 100 tries:

Before:

• Average response time: 374 ms
• Throughput: 1295 request/minute

After:

• Average response time: 132 ms
• Throughput: 2708 request/minute

Response time reduced about 30% from original. Another page with more complex queries reduce response time 800 ms to 210 ms or about 25%.
