ways to improve compilation?

[Jéjé]

Hi,

hoew can I improve the compilation process of a sharepoint website?

my server is:
2 * P3 Xeom 1ghz
4go ram
2 * 36gb (mirror for OS and website)
2 * 36 Raid 0 (stripping; for temp files and ASP.net compiled files)
3.*36 raid 5 (for databases)

I found this server slow!!!
another new server:
Celeron 2.5ghz
1.5gb ram
2 *36gb (mirror)

the second server takes far less time to compile the pages and done some
rendering processes

any idea how can I improve my server A?

thanks.

Jerome.

The web pages should be compiled only once, not every time they load. If
you're seeing performance problems it's unlikely that the issue is with the
web site code itself.

I know that the page is compiled only 1 time
but we have a lot of pages, and the CSC process appear to many times and the
compilation process himself is long.
specially after an iisreset command.

Jeje,

It appears Server A is running the database. Having a dedicated SQL box that
isn't the front end web server will probably crank your performance up a few
notches... which is why Server B is a lot faster-- it's not dealing with any
database work.

For portalbuilder.org, I run a dedicated SQL box, a web + serach box, and a
index +job box. Keeping everything but web OFF of the front end will
dramatically increase your performance... so you may want to use server B as
your front end and keep Server A for your backend. Add a cheap box for your
index and job server (you don't want that on either your front end or
database server optimally) and you'll be STYLIN.

the server B is also a standalone server (wioth all in 1 box : database, web
sites, sharepoint...)
and server B has only 2 IDE HD!
no SCSI!
(all NTFS)

That's crazy Jeje!

There must be some sort of bottleneck we're not seeing... sorry I couldn't
help, but let us know what you find!

I know

and I've not found the bottleneck!
are drives are ok, processors also.

maybe a memory problem...
