Excuse me, I believe the complete opposite is true ;-)
There's no way IIS can know that a page with .asp extention has no dynamic
content without interpreting it. And because ASP is really interpreting, it
happens with every request!
OTOH, if you create a static page and give it a .jsp extention, it will be
translated in a servlet.
(A very simple servlet) that's loaded into memory after the first request.
As long as the servlet engine doesn't dispose this servlet class, it might
deliver it's content at the same or even higher speed that static html
pages.
