Hosting poor performance versus local debugging performance

Question

Don't know if anyone alrealy had this problem before but if yes, can you tell things we can try to do on server;

We've gettin' something like 2 at 3 more times to execute an HTTP request on a hosted application comparing to the same local application (on debug). But if we trace between preinit and rederer, on host (release),we've gettin' something like 0.250secondes "code" request time but, for what we see, it take something like 3 or 4 secondes to render that complete page. It drives us crazy! Any idea? What program can we use to check this out? If it were happening to you, what would you try?

Thanks a lot.

Application :

• ASP.net
• SQL Server
• Entity framework

P.s.: Sorry for my english, I usualy talk french, im from Quebec.

Answer 1

probably any of this:

• is the data from the development computer the same that in the production(hosted) server? if not the problem is that you are not using well your ORM or have to optimize your app.

• you can use firebug net panel to check if the problem is from the network...

• if you are using a VPS and a cheap one, your computer might be better than the server and as the server is shared among several virtual sites their load might affect the performance of your app.

hope it helps.
