Problem in Speeding Up First Load of this page...

Improving Response Loading

Hi,

Is there a guide in improving loading performance when using atlsa controls liek update panel, tabcontainer and tabpanels, multiview and view, Gridview, composite controls, web user controls, updateprogress and other asp.net web controls together in a web user control. I have this user control that contains 2 tabcontainers, first, has 3 tabpanels, second,
is contain as child tabpanel of one of outer tabpanels, has 6 tab panels, currently 3 of these tab panels has usercontrols, 2 outer tabpanels has gridview in them.

Is there a way to speed up loading for first time? Any ideas, I time first load of this page, it time between 4 to 6 seconds, sometimes even 9 seconds.

Basically AddButtonAttribute(), GetPostBackAugument(), GetGlobalParameter(), PopulateFilterDropDown(), PopulateFilterDropDown(), and RestrictTabs() and base.OnLoad(e) are executed when this page is loaded for first time.

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e) { AddButtonAttribute();//Add Attribute javascript functionstring args = GetPostBackArgument();//Get _PostBack(control, argument)string tabPage = GetGlobalParameter();//Get a global hidden field valueif (!Page.IsPostback) {if (tabPage !=string.Empty && args !="Redirect") RedirectTabPage(viewPage);//Where a TabPanel speciifc function is handled including loading usercontrol to this usercontrol }else {if (tabPage !=string.Empty && args !="Redirect") RedirectTabPage(tabPage);//Where a TabPanel speciifc function is handled including loading usercontrol to this usercontrolelse if (args =="ContentRedirect") PopulateFilterDropDown();//Populate 3 Dropdownlist controls } RestrictTabs();//Restrict Tabpanelsbase.OnLoad(e); }

Structure like this xml:

4 usercontrols

<hiddenfields = 14>
<UpdatePanel>
<TabContainer>
<TabPanel>
<MultiView>
<View>
<UpdateProgress></UpdateProgress>
<control></control>
<GridView></GridView>

</TabContainer>
</UpdatePanel>

Thabks in advanced.

I was wondering using Session to replace HiddenFields to speed up loading, and put controls found inside tab into a user control and loading them when it is needed, will this speed up loading process a lot?

Try this set

<% @.Page Trace="True" %>The trace information will show you exactly how large your ViewState is for that page.

try to figure out which controls you can disable the ViewState for (EnableViewState="False") or what might be causing your ViewState bloat.

Check debug="false" is et or not in web.config, it will improve some performance
