>From MX 6, version 5 or earlier? There are a LOT of lessons learned, especially when it comes to server config and practices that can bring your server down. I do a rather nice business being on call just to solve these issues. The first issue is where your coming from. If it's MX, then there's really nothing to change to make it work. If it's from CF 5, then we're talking about some different animals. In most cases your code will have no problem and running it through the validation in the admin will go a long way in making sure it's ok. The rest is just hand tuning. In general, you want to play with the JVM a lot. I have a wav file that I have to write up at some point on www.houseoffusion.com/media. Also, while the CFMX 7 verity is better than the CFMX 6, it's still a major hog and hard to handle in relation to the ease of CF 5. Make sure your collection indexing is small no matter what. If its too big you can toast the server. I can go on for a day here (I do) but on the whole a move up to 7 is relatively painless.
