title: Strategies for reducing ViewState size in asp.net
body: <p>I use 'n' number of server controls in my page.  Now I am into performance tuning and I've noticed that my <code>ViewState</code> is too large and it makes my page slow.</p>
  
  <p>I know <code>ViewState</code> size can be compressed by Gzip. Any other suggestions for reducing <code>ViewState</code> in asp.net. I don't want to do in IIS because my web application is hosted on a shared server.</p>
