ASP Coding for Performance - Use .htm Extensions Where Relevant
For sites with very high hit rates, for non-dynamic pages use .htm rather than .asp extensions. The web server can serve these static pages at a more rapid rate, as they do not need parsing before sending to the client browser. This takes some load off the server. If necessary, such pages can be created in batch via some ASP (or other tool) routines, providing a half way house between true dynamic pages and limited, manually edited, static ones. Such routines could be run daily, weekly etc.
