It depends on how you have your build configured the best way (in terms of performance) is to precompile everything: c:\winnt\microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_compiler -p -v / It compiles your site all into dll's (except of course images, txt files etc) and all your dll's will be in the bin folder.

Hi there, In the ASP.NET 2.0, you are much more flexible in choosing one of several available options to deploy your application.
