display deep hierarchical data in asp.net

What is the best way to display a lot of hierarchical data in ASP.NET? The browser takes a lot of time to re-render the content and postback will be big. Are there any lightweight components available?

You might want to consider only displaying the first two or three levels upon initial page load. When the user wants to expand a node, you can use AJAX to retrieve only the extra data for that node's children.

If you do not need the features of postback, ie: if this is display only, then you can turn off viewstate.
