We have an asp.net 2.0 site created in visual studio using the asp.net site model. Therefore, every time I need to deploy a website on a production server, I go to the visual studio and right-click on the website and select "publish website". I will check the first 2 options. "Allow updating this precompiled site" and "use fixed naming assemblies." In the field "Destination" I specify the name of the folder on my local machine. Once it is published successfully, I will copy the contents from the local folder to the website folder in iis. Does this mean that I will pre-combine the website. After copying the website, I do not see an instant response to the pages. Initially, it takes some time to download,as if it were compiling at this time. After that, if I go to the same page again, it's quick. So, I don’t think I'm doing precompilation, but I'm not sure.
Please let me know.
