Using StartMode Attribute Every time we update our site, IIS must recompile it during the first request, so the initial request takes significantly longer than subsequent ones. An easy solution for this is to tell IIS to automatically recompile our site as part of the update process. And this can be achieved using the startMode attribute in the ApplicationHost.config file. In essence, we can say, by using startMode attribe, one can reduce the initial load time of an ASP.Net site. Hope it helps :)
