optimizing DropDownLists

another question on optimization. could I just post back the selected value
of a dropdownlist? I have like three dropdownlists with lots of data, in the
same web form, problem is that is slowing down the loading process, so I
though that if I just send back to the server the selected value and not all
the data, then that will speed up my loading process.
any work around?

Thanks,
Alejandro.Turn off viewstate and use Request.Form to get the selected value...
