> Which is why this sort of optimization concern is so pointless! :) Not so fast there cowboy. :) The 200 mili and 400 mili numbers were 1 million loops of a 4-faceted cfif and cfswitch structure respectively comparing string values on CF8.
That same test on CF7.0.2 yields 1 second for the cfif and 115 seconds (nearly two minutes!) for cfswitch. Good luck trying to blame two minutes of page load time on network delays. :) Do many people use 1 million cfif's or cfswitch's on a page? Probably not. Truth is though; there is at least one documented case where a large number of cfswitch's on CF7 was literally bringing down someone's server until they converted them to cfif's. The problem may not affect everyone, but it's worth noting as opposed to writing it off IMO. Also, I'm glad you mentioned the CF8 debugger lets you break on exceptions. I'll have to play with that! ~Brad ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Check out the new features and enhancements in the latest product release - download the "What's New PDF" now http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/coldfusion/cf8_beta_whatsnew_052907.pdf Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:293657 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
