-ASP.NET Web Forms behind the scenes is actually a mature and performant technology and it's compositional development model is still a good fit for developing internal LOB applications. My issue with it is that I consider it to be an **anti-web** technology, where its thick view-state and post-backs for everything prohibits the inherent caching benefits in HTTP and encourages poor web development practices. I'm not designing that you can fight against the grain and make ASP.NET apps perform well, but I am recommending the move to the shinier and newer web frameworks from Microsoft in [asp.net/mvc](http://www.asp.net/mvc) and [asp.net/webmatrix](http://www.asp.net/webmatrix).
