Now you mention it, I have encountered several page not found errors 
completely out of the blue with CFMX. Refresh the page and Voila, the 
problem disappears. But, I would have to agree that there is a problem 
here. And it has me very concerned considering we are planning a release of 
our new CFMX based site at the end of the month.

I've also had other strange experiences with CFMX. It seems that sometimes 
settings change for no reason after a reboot.

I really hope MM is aware (I'm sure they are) of some of these issues and 
that those service packs/patches will be released soon. Or does releasing 
Service Packs and/or patches so soon after a product launch look bad for 
MM? It would be nice to have some these issues listed as "known bugs" and 
timeliness for patches and/or workaounds. Is there anything like this on 
the MM site?

Are there an CFMX success stories (high traffic sites?). Any body else care 
to share any 'bugs" or issue's they have come across while using CFMX? I am 
getting really nervous about our Sept 1st launch. We already have hundreds 
of users on our site (pay site) and they would be none to happy if our web 
services started acting funny. It could inevitably cost us business. But at 
the same time, we have already delayed our publized launch date due to some 
technical issues, CFMX among them and may not be able to push the release 
date any further.

We'll have to see how it goes I guess, and hope for the best (and load 
test!). It would be nice to see some CFMX sites with moderate to high 
traffic who are not having issues.That would be comforting. :)
