So I took it back down. - Just a thought: Check your server logs for a Spam Bot submitting bogus data (or even binary data) to the search form on the index page. On a couple of sites I work on this is increasingly becoming a problem. If this is the case, you can fix it in the short term by adding some additional filters for the search data (or whatever form data might be the problem), strict typing in your CFC arguments, and <cfqueryparams> in your search queries. It won't eliminate the problem, but it will abort the bad requests faster so your server can get back to business. - Another thought: Is your navigation query cached? If not, it could be a bottleneck since it's being executed on every page request. > I'm going to put the new site back up in a few minutes and see how it > goes again.

Sounds more likely that there are long running requests on your pages (executing closely together) that keep filling up the system resources until it slows down. > The settings that CommonSpot recommend are below but I went ahead and > checked the Timeout requests and set it to 60 for now. - I might suggest calling PaperThin for support on the matter. You paid a good chunk of change for the CMS - I assume. I don't know much about CommonSpot since I use FarCry, ModelGlue, or my own framework much of the time, but some of their recommended settings don't make sense in a production environment. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:260220 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
