If they want to run 30 concurrent users, then you've got to tell the
client 2 things
1) Upgrade the memory
2) Upgrade from Access to a server level database rather than a user
level database
Try an analogy:
It's like trying to drive down the freeway/motorway in a go-kart
Having a single processor server with 256MB of RAM and expect it to
handle 30 concurrent request, and then running it on Access is a little
unrealistic
The (rough estimated) level of concurrent requests in CF5 is 4-5 per
processor - so you would need a 6-8 processor machine
Access ODBC handles 50 concurrent requests before it begins to throw
errors - that's 50 CFQUERY tags total - so for 30 concurrent requests,
you'd have 1.5 queries per page without cache!
You can't run a site of that amount of traffic on a box of that
specification
You also realise that if you don't argue with the client over this, when
it falls flat on it's face that they'll blame you, right?
