I don't really use GridView, so I don't know exactly what behavior is different when viewstate is enabled or disabled. It's different for every control (in some cases some events won't fire when viewstate is disabled). For some controls, it hardly makes any difference whatsoever. For the GridView, it's probably posting back some of it's data that isn't persisted in viewstate.
