I feel tempted to say: why don't you try it and see what happens? The answer is: the engine single threads the *generation* of a presentation. The presentation is generated on-demand and then a user sits and watches it. If five people request a presentation "at the same time" then the preso will be generated five times in succession, single-threaded, and then each of those five users will sit and watch the presentation simultaneously. Put another way, if you have users visiting your site and, on average, they request a presentation every five seconds and the presentation takes less than five seconds to generate, no one will notice that it is single-threaded. That's about 17,000 presentation requests per day. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| ColdFusion 8 - Build next generation apps today, with easy PDF and Ajax features - download now http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/coldfusion/cf8_beta_whatsnew_052907.pdf Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:285003 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
