Our Development/Staging/QA/whatever-you-want-to-call-it mirrors Production exactly.
CF settings, JVM settings, OS settings, Apache settings. It has to. (OK you can get away with the odd discrepency). Now true, we won't have external users hitting this environment, but we still have to load test it by simulating X number of users, etc so we are still creating the millions of visitors and thousands of sessions etc that you're on about. And I'm assuming this is what Jochem is on about??? Of course, if we're all on about the workstation I develop on before it goes to Dev/Staging/whatever then fair enough, it is night and day.
