Question

I am using master page in which menu is generating dynamically according to user role in code. The same menu is used for all application to a particular user up to log out. So instead of recreating it, i need the same menu for all of the application. The Menu is in StringBuilder which is very large size. Is Session or Data cache is better and less memory consuming in my situation and why. Please suggest?

I want to improve performance of master page.

Thanks

I think Cache will be better as you will have only one instance created for one role, but Session will make it create multiple instance as many as user is accessing, and you will have to wait session timeout sometimes to free the memory
