Tutorials: Checklist for Moving .NET App to Production

Found this in (stackoverflow.com), Its a good checklist.

1) set debug=false into the web.config (yep this does improves performance ALOT!)

2) set trace enabled=false into the web.config (never tried this before, will try shortly)

3) Always use precompiled version of your code. (already using class library, but i suppose this will be good for codes still in .cs & app_code)

4) Compile your project into the release mode.

5) Publish your code if you are using asp.net 2.0 or higher version

6) User caching api as much as possible.

7) Decrease your html kb.

8) remove blank spaces from the asp.net html code.

9) Use stylesheet as external .css file

10) USE IIS Compression if poosible.

11) Put your javascript file in .js files

12) Use Server.Transfer instead of Response.redirect

13) Use Inproc Session State if possible.

14) Use Viewstate efficiently- Use controlstate instead of viewstate which is newer feature in asp.net 2.0

15) Avoid giving big name to controls it will increase your html kb.

16) Use Div instead of tables it will decrease your size.

17) Do IIS Performance tuning as per your requirement
