How do you explain ToysRus Katrina?
With 500,000 hits a day I'm sure he has the hardware to deal with anything.
CF as it is does not lend itself to high volume sites.
Perhaps with user definable functions and some tightening and integration of
<cfscript> sites will be able to scale better. I personally think cf's
scaling problems come mostly from having to do so much parsing, and make
allowances for easily debuggable errors.
We already know most of this will be done away with in Neo, since there will
be no parsing of html to be done by CF...
