I’ve come across a little article that gives us some good advice to enhance performance in our ASP.NET applications, here they are:

Tips to improve the performance of asp.net application

• Session State : If you are not using session state then disable it. You can disable it for the particular page instead of every pages
• Validations : Try to use client side validation, instead of server side validation. Server side validation will make load on server
• Use HTML Controls : Try to use html controls instead of asp.net controls
• Use Repeater : Use repeater instead of datagrid, datalist, listview
• Data Caching : Use data caching where you can implement it. Identify static data, which is not frequently updated and implement caching for that
• Null Check : Always check null before accessing cache items
• IsPostback : Always use IsPostBack on your page
• Disable Tracing : In web config file disable the tracing
• HTTP Compression : Make sure HTTP Compression is turned on
• Paging : Use paging to retrieve the data, only show small subset of data, for faster page load
• Combine CSS – JS files : Combine css & js files, it will reduce no of requests and will help to faster page load
• CDN : Use CDN for hosting images and script files
• HTTP Modules : Remove http modules which are not used
• Garbage Collection : Always dispose object once you have used it
• Avoid Exceptions : Your code should attempt to avoid exceptions to improve performance because exceptions incur a significant overhead.
