there is a check box where you can select "maintain database connections, etc."
But your friend is wrong anyway.

Subject: Understanding/Defending Coldfusion connections
OK so a friend of mine at an office I used to work at
is having trouble defending coldfusion over dot net
he tells me that this voice of 'authority' (its
strange that a man that speaks with confidence is
never questioned)
"said cold fusion ****[is no good] because it keeps a
database connection open all the time and that slows
down the program/app and server"
This particular web professional is converting all his
CF to dot net, because of this defense.
I've been briefly looking around so that I can
understand database connections better and respond to
him with the voice of reason (also to possibly
optimise the performance of the access back end I have
been stuck with on my current contract).
But I keep coming up with help files on configuring
datasources instead of information on how cf connects
to datasources.
Anybody have a good reference I can point to.
