Well, it looks like the first time the connector loads, it checks for JRun, and loads the file types jrun will handle. Only the first time tho, as if I start the httpd service and CF isn't running, there is the delay before anything is served (the connector hits the specified wait period, and then throws an error), but if I stop CF after starting both JRun and the httpd service, there is no error, as the connector doesn't even bother to try to contact JRun for a non-mapped (in this example, a .gif) resource, if it already knows what JRun will/won't handle (from that initial request while it was running, before I shut it off). That's better, actually, since I really don't want JRun to handle every freaking request. That would pretty much defeat a major benefit of using a real webserver, versus one that hands *everything* off to JRun. (And Dave, I didn't see a * mapping, only *.[cf] stuff, so I wonder if there is a way to get rid of that initial check of the JRun connector for any content (including images)... I sorta doubt it, as I'm thinking that's more the connector/httpd than JRun/CF... probably something do do with using a "handler" vs. a proxy? Yeah...) I think I'm starting to understand the connector better. Yup. Fo sho. This tomcat/jboss experience has been an eye opener! Wooters! * * * If anyone wants to recommend a good load tester, I'd be happy to compare some stuff... I'm curious now to see how the different types of connecting to CF perform... and jboss/tomcat vs. jrun... static content mixed with dynamic... Selenium I'm using within FireFox to do automated tests, (which kick ass, btw! Thanks to whoever mentioned that software! http://www.openqa.org/selenium-ide/ ) perhaps the full deal does real load testing... I'll have to take a gander. Still, any suggestions are always appreciated.... (load testing, unit testing, what have you...)
