Apart from what Joshua said, you can use out-of-process session state
(asp_state is one of the options, but you can choose your own) and also,
as I replied a few minutes ago to someone else, it would help having
static validation and encryption keys in <machineKey> in your web.config
so that viewstates already on the client side don't get invalidated.
