You are mainly talking about keeping the application resident in memory in IIS. I'm not as sure that this approach keeps a copy of each page around -- already compiled and rendered -- ready for fast delivery. I suspect not. (I'm sure this is well discussed elsewhere in these forums!) However I just got a copy of the free www.Snapsis.com PageBlaster (there is a ~$50 version that does a bunch more neat stuff too), which Nina recommends (she's a demi-goddess around here!) and that can be set to prerender every page once it is edited and that woudl add to your delivery speed I suspect. I would love your tray app if you don't mind, with source if ok (I won't ever sell it), send to: keepalive at vashonsoftware dot com. Thx!
