Slow spint up time

Question

I believe when an web application has been idle for a long time - say overnight - the first time that the page gets rendered is very slow.  This is the case with our WSS environment.  So, the first person that hits the application, it takes like anywhere between 30 to 60 seconds to load.  After that, pages come up very quickly for everyone.

Is ther anyway to run a script in IIS or something to ensure they don't stay idle?

THanks,

Walid

Thank you.  This does work if I don't use any of the switches.  I am runing it as a batch file so I can schedule.  When I include the switches in the batch file, it does not work.
