OK bearded guy, lets get it on! You store each bug as a wddx packet which is wrapped with all the bugs together in another wddx packet. You have all the bugs stored in ram which works for a few hundred bugs, but when people start logging lots of bugs or misuse the system to do new feature requests basically bogs down ram (we've got over 100 and they want to do much more). You have so many functions in you CFC that even a CFTHROW is wrapped in a function. A SINGLE TAG! You have a note in there saying that transforming the system to DB would be easy to do and it would be done 'here'. Nope. Only storage would be done 'here'. Everything else would be the same massive memory structure. This convinced my boss that it would be a 5 minute job. Maybe not spectra like as much as overly objectified. And it gave my boss a false sense of ease of transformation. I had to rip out everything and redo it with nothing but your front end which I have to dump for their 'features'. Your easy bug tracker is now becoming a task manager with parent/child relationships and floats for order by keys. ARRRRRRRRRRR And it smells like elderberries, so there! Watcha gonna do about that. ;)
