 I was wondering though if precompiling can be utalized with a large ecommerce site.

(ignoring maintainability)

Any suggestions?

If you're using VS2005/Express you can use aspnet_merge.exe utility.

Read more about this at:

Hope this helps.

Collectively, they offer a lot of flexibility to address naming issues, # of DLLs, etc.

Re: brokensaber's ? re: compilation of a large e-commerce site, yes, performance would benefit from compilation. However, in a large site you would want to consider the granularity of compilation, i.e., how many DLLs. This would not only be for performance, but for maintenance. You would also want to become familar w/ the "updatable" option.

Re: aspnet_merge.exe...it was my understanding that aspnet_merge.exe doesn't natively deploy with VS.  that, for VS2005, you have to install the Web Deployment Projects (<a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/asp.net/aa336619.aspx">msdn.microsoft.com/.../aa336619.aspx</a>) and, for VS2008, you have to install the Windows SDK for .NET 3.5 (<a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e">www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx</a> 6e1c3df-a74f-4207-8586-711ebe331cdc&displaylang=en).  Furthermore, while the Publish Web menu option uses aspnet_compiler behind the scenes, I don't see that is uses aspnet_merge or I would think we would have an option to merge all code-behind to a single, distinctly-named DLL.

Why doesn't the compiler release the memory while compiling files.
