This can lead to lots of controvertial posts. I did some performance testing long back between HTML, CF, PHP, ASP.NET and Java. The benchmark was a static HTML page and everything was measured against the performance of HTML. Criteria used in the benchmarking was to generate a datetime stamp, results from 5 queries to DB and a 50K page size
The performance results matrix is given below: HTML 100% (static DataTime stamp and no queries to DB) PHP 90% of HTML ASP.NET 80% of HTML JAVA 75% of HTML CF 40% of HTML [but I can say that CF is slowly improving] These are my findings and may change from time to time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:338338 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
