Hi,

I'm trying to reduce the start-up time of a browser deployed .NET application. The app uses webservices to login to our back-end server. The proxies are generated via the wsdl.exe tool.

The first time I instance the webservice proxy class it takes 3-4 seconds. What is .NET doing during this time?

The Visual Studio debug console reports the following line...
'TestDocumentEditorControl.exe': Loaded 'b8nfj03n', No symbols loaded.
Where 'b8nfj03n' is a random name.

It looks to me that an assembly is being dynamically compiled for each proxy class. Is this the case? If so, can I move this compilation into the build of my app? This would significantly improve start-up times.

Thanks
