Some ASP.NET Benchmark data

Some ASP.NET Benchmark data

This is just a very simple and rough benchmark test, I use my own desktop computer running Windows XP professional and many process (including the heavy weight Visual Studio 2008) and ASP.NET's development server which comes with Visual Studio. I believe after deploy it on IIS under Windows Server box will archive much better performance.

I use Apache bench to test, the parameter I used is "-n 1000 -c 100", means send 1000 requests and concurrent number is 100.

Quick view of results:

Of course a simple .aspx page archive the best performance, MVC add very minimal overhead to it.

Use tag to render user control have almost no overhead ( I believe it has been complied inside, like source level include),  RenderUserControl() have a small overhead.

shinakuma's RenderComponent() have some overhead in performance since he use "ProcessRequest()" which actually initialize a whole server side MVC cycle.  (Java's jsp:include have same heavy weight behavior as I tested before.) If we can find out a better solution to archive a much lighter weight performance it would be great.

Details outputs:

Test #1: Simple aspx view (same as below MVC's view aspx file)
