I would agree. If you have something that says "hello Visitor #application.visitorcount#" there's not much harm in having an occasional visitor see a count thats one number off. In CFMX (6+) 1. You only need to lock writes in case of undesirable race conditions 2. You don't need to lock reads. A pretty significant difference from CF5 on down. All that cool java stuff under CF's hood keeps the server from going blooiey on writes now. You feel quite naughty for awhile, when you start writing them all naked on their own. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:200730 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
