General

Having Static Resources On means the first time the application is hit, it will cache all it's resources under a Route folder within the web application folder. This mean quicker access for deployed applications, but it means a longer load time first time the app is run after each deployment.

Reccomended setting is to have it Off while developing, but set it On when you deply to a webserver.

Note that keeping this switch On while developing within Visual Studio, mean one more level of caching to think about. When clearing all cache, make sure you remember to clear the Route folder also.
