So, my environment stands as such: 7 servers, 7 clusters, and 17 CF instances. Half have been migrated to CF7, the other half are on CF6 (destined to be migrated shortly). The clusters all use J2EE sessions for failover.
I'm having issues in one of the CF7 clusters. Due to limitations with our networking setup (no multicast allowed across subnets), I've been limited to just one clustered instance of CF for 50+ applications. This is being addressed tomorrow (yay!), but it's been delayed due to issues with policy, rules, etc. I've finally gotten licenses and permission to install FusionReactor, and I put it in place on all servers this past weekend. I also took the liberty of installing the JDBC wrapper provided by FusionReactor to get a better idea of what our... uh, "intensive" apps are doing. I noticed a HUGE spike in memory usage today, and when I checked, one of our apps had taken 40 seconds to complete its request, of which 21 seconds were strictly database related, and used several hundred megs of memory. The result set returned was over 100k records. I'm not sure if this got loaded into a shared memory scope, but it might explain why session replication is failing constantly. So, does anyone have a "Best Practice" for the amount of results that should be returned into a shared environment? I'm thinking at this point that there is very little need to work with more than 1000 records at a given time (at least within ColdFusion... if data manipulation is required, that's why stored procedures and functions exist in Oracle). Now, with the datasource wrapper within the FusionReactor JDBC calls, I CAN limit the amount of information received by ColdFusion. I just need to get another set of eyes on this before I present it as a policy change.
