If your page takes a long time to load what will the user of
the site think?

I guess you should look at the reason why your page is
taking a long time to load.

Can you shed some more light as to why it is taking so long?

Thanks for the resonse,

The pages I am using are actually display the reports. Some
reports takes very long time to load. I know the site is
performing very poor but the performance tunning is later part
of the project. I need to test the correctness of the output
first.
I just want to know how to increase the timeout. Let me know
If this parameter is not yet configurable.I will find some
workaround till then.

Thanks,
Vivek

The page timeout is set in the machine.config but you
shouldn't change it there. Add the following line to your
web.config to override the default value of 90 seconds.

<codeStart>
....
<system.web>
...
<httpRuntime executionTimeout="90" />
...
</system.web>
...
</codeEnd>
