I find that using Dynamic Forms on Request for Quote or Contact pages makes the page so slow to load that visitors may choose to leave. Also when the pages are filled out and you click submit, the page is so slow that visitors sometimes submit several times because they think the page did not submit.  Does anyone have a fix for this problem?

Hi Frank,

I have noticed that before as well. This link you will find 2 suggestions:

1 - Disable Ajax - This is a simple one. Go to Module Configuration -> AJAX / jQuery Integration and disable jQuery and AJAX;

2 - Upgrade Dynamic Forms;

Not sure which one will give you the performance improvement, but #1 is easy to try.

Regards,

Aderson

I just saw this in the Dynamic Forms site on the slow loading of the form.

"I may have found something that helps with the module load times. I had been working with Microsoft recently on an unrelated application performance issue and during the troubleshooting process one of their engineers mentioned changing the "Idle Time-out (minutes)" value in the Advanced Settings of the respective application pool (in IIS 7.5). The default is 20 and I have changed it to 0. So far it appears that I can let this site sit for quite a while and the DS modules load up pretty quick on the next call to them (at least with DF). I'll keep that setting in place and let you know how things go."

Adjusting the idle timeout of the app pool to zero will keep IIS from recycling the app pool automatically.  If my DNN site is stable, I will usually do this because there is no need for IIS to recycle if my application is properly written and has no memory leaks.  This help keep DNN loaded all the time.  I doubt this will change performance of Dynamic Forms specifically.

One suggestion -- ask DataSprings if their newest version supports the ClientResourceManagement.  If so, you can turn on composite script files by going to Host > Host Settings > Advanced Settings > Client Resource Management.  With this setting, DNN will composite all scripts, cached them, and load them through a handler.  This can increase your page performance in DNN.
