If your java code made use of the ability to spawn new threads, sure, you might see a significant performance boost. Might... you might not... I don't have deep personal knowledge on the subject of sending email with Java -- so I don't know if there are bottlenecks (common resources that need to be single-threaded) which would prevent a performance boost. I wouldn't expect them, but I could be wrong. Alternatively, if you've upgraded to MX 7 enterprise you could simply use the Asynchronous gateway to achieve the same result while staying within CFML (and as a result having access to <cfmail> so you could keep most of your existing code). s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://macromedia.breezecentral.com/p49777853/ http://www.sys-con.com/author/?id=4806 http://www.fusiontap.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
