ViewState is a functionality feature of .net

From what i gather on ViewState...
you can turn off the viewstate, but you'll lose out maintaining data, and have to requery data on each postback, which will lead to other design changes

2.0 is supposed to better use the viewstate and "compact" it.

I wouldn't bother to disable the viewstate unless you have an application that is in the nature of a single page with a small number of inputs and all it does is query LARGE amounts of data. If you have a large amount of data stored in something like a datagrid, then yes, the viewstate starts to become a noticeable problem because all of that data is duplicated in the viewstate.

I would just leave it on unless the above is true.
