<!-- Uncomment this line to customize maxJsonLength and add a custom converter -->
<!--
<jsonSerialization maxJsonLength="2147483644">
<converters>
<add name="ConvertMe" type="Acme.SubAcme.ConvertMeTypeConverter"/>
</converters>
</jsonSerialization>

<!-- Uncomment this line to enable the authentication service. Include requireSSL="true" if appropriate. -->
<!--
<authenticationService enabled="true" requireSSL = "true|false"/>

<!-- Uncomment these lines to enable the profile service. To allow profile properties to be retrieved
and modified in ASP.NET AJAX Applications, you need to add each property name to the readAccessProperties and
writeAccessProperties attributes. -->
<!--
<profileService enabled="true"
readAccessProperties="propertyname1,propertyname2"
writeAccessProperties="propertyname1,propertyname2" />
-->
<!--</webServices>

<scriptResourceHandler enableCompression="true" enableCaching="true" />
</scripting>
</system.web.extensions>

</modules>
<staticContent>
<clientCache cacheControlMaxAge ="30.00:00:00" cacheControlMode="UseMaxAge"/>
</staticContent>
3: Set Debug to false if it is true and set optimizeCompilations=True.
<compilation debug="false" optimizeCompilations="true">

Perform an IISRESET via command prompt.
NOTE:
- Please close browser and reopen to see changes in effect.
- First load of any page is always slow compared to subsequent loads, so verify and load each page couple of times to see the difference.
- After few loads, you will see MachPanel starts to load much faster for portions of the control panel that have been accessed at least once by any customer.
