Best Practices for SharePoint 2007 Sites to Improve Performance
Some of the best practices for using Publishing Site are:
1. Keep Files UnCustomized - Try to keep your files UnCustomized or on the server. Avoid editing them in SharePoint designer or by using SharePoint API if not needed. Customizing the files can cost you alot in terms of Performance and space as every Customized or Unghosted file in is subjected to safe mode parser.Its basically, a little Check to see that everything on the Page is allowed to run in SharePoint.
2. Avoid adding lot of WebParts on a single Page - Check the closed webparts on your page and make sure you delete them.
3. Memory Management- Always, Dispose SPSIte and SPWeb Objects if you have created them in your code. You can employ certain coding techniques to ensure object disposal. These techniques include using the following in your code:
* Dispose method
* using clause
* try, catch, and finally blocks
Note : SPContext objects are managed by the SharePoint framework and should not be explicitly disposed in your code. This is true also for the SPSite and SPWeb objects returned by SPContext.Site, SPContext.Current.Site, SPContext.Web, and SPContext.Current.Web.
4. Reduce the Page Payload - SharePoint Page loads a lot of images from _layouts or other various paths which can make the Page load a slow process. To avoid this Payload you can use clustering or stitching, which combines multiple images into a single image file. You can then use CSS to clip parts of the image, giving users the impression that multiple images are being used.
5. Enable output caching for a site collection - For each page request for which an output cached version of a page is served, the server does not have to:
* Make a round trip to the database to fetch the source code for the .aspx page and any .ascx controls on the page.
* Reload and re-render the controls.
* Requery any data sources that the controls rely on for data.
However, Output caching consumes additional memory. Each version of a page consumes memory on the Web client.When used with two or more front-end Web servers, output caching may affect consistency.
