Send email Preview times out

Post by AbleMods » Mon Aug 23, 2010 8:46 am

I've only got 5,000 emails in the list. But I can't even get the preview-and-send page for that marketing list to render. It always results in a page timeout. I even have my web.config set to:

Code: Select all

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="16384" />
and it's still timing out. I'm going to try some additional indexes to speed it up, but seriously 5,000 members of a list shouldn't result in a full page timeout.

The page is designed poorly. It's pulling the entire marketing list contents and constructing all destination emails before the preview takes place. That's an enormous waste of time and resources since the user hasn't even confirmed if they want to send the message or not.
