load-balancing

I have a problem of load balancing. We developed a web app for nearly 1500 users. As the number of users increased we are unable to serve the requests in a timely manner. It takes around 10 to 20 seconds to load a page. Under heavy load it can take one minute to serve the page.

We need to solve this situation so that each request is served in 2 or 3 seconds.

App develped in : asp.net
Hosted in : IIS 7.5
Machine configuration : Windows Server 2008, 8GB RAM, 1Mbps bandwidth
