We have finally put our giant VB.net 2.0 Web Application into a code freeze exclusively so we can put some performance enhancements into it.
I was wondering if it would be worth it to upgrade the .Net version to increase the application's performance.
It will be worthwhile to upgrade, but not due to automatic improvements.
It will be worthwhile to upgrade because you'll have more options on how to fix the performance problems.
It will also be worthwhile to upgrade because .NET 2.0 is six years old! Don't ever stay in the past unless you have to, or you'll eventually wind up having to explain why you're using decade-old technology.
