I can't doubt that what you say is true. It makes perfect sense. However, I've tested it on my site several times. If I walk across the room right now and stop IIS and start Apache, I will see a positive impact on the performance of my CF site. I just can't do that because of my former-ms-employee network admin's absolute insistence on running only Windows and IIS. (With him in the boss's ear, I'm surprised I haven't been forced to rewrite everything in ASP.NET yet.)
Furthermore, I have a very old intranet site that is all just static HTML that I'm about to rebuild in CF. The performance of that site, while hard to judge due to lower load and connections that are all internal, does not seem to be affected AT ALL. Given that, I've just always assumed that it was a CF and IIS issue. I can only report on my own concrete experiences. --Ferg -----Original Message----- From: Dave Watts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 31, 2005 10:29 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: ColdFusion MX 7 slow? > Yep, we found this.

Second, if CF does run faster on one than another, is that because of the web server or because of CF? After all, the web server doesn't really have that much to do with how CF runs - with both IIS and Apache, CFMX is integrated with the web server using a module that sits at the front of the web serving process - in IIS, this is called an ISAPI filter.
