asp.net project slowly loaded in VPN

[vbbit]

I don't understand. I uploaded my asp.net project to one of our servers. When I did browse to the page in our VPN, the page is so slow to be loaded; however, if I am out side VPN, the page is very fast loaded. How can I resolve this?

Are all web pages inside the VPN slow to load? It may just be a proxy/firewall issue which is slowing everything down.

If its just a standard windows VPN your using, try unticking the box in the Advanced TCP/IP options that says "Use default gateway on remote network" - that way only traffic that needs to go down the VPN will do and your normal web browsing will not be affected.

This is a window server... if I do that, would that affect any other web pages that hosted on that server? It's not just my page on there...

[vbbit]

Also, this will open to public folks too that are not in VPN... security wise no problem if I do that?

and mendhak.. it's only the default.aspx page... then it's fast..

OK, then I'm wondering if it's simply a first-access-compile that ASP.NET applications do when they haven't been touched for a few hours?

What happens if you browse directly to another page first instead of default.aspx? If it's not just default.aspx but rather 'the first page I browse to in the application', then it's probably ASP.NET precompilation! You'll need to test first of course.
