If people would attack scalability at an application level they would likely end up with better performance than trying to optimize individual CF pages.

Sometimes code optimization is what you need. > If the page in question was cached then it wouldn't matter what technique you used. The idea is to attack scalability at a high level. Code optimization is low level and takes significantly more time. -Matt ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
