Yes. Have that on my desk by morning. Thanks. Just kidding, man, I don't write your checks. Unfortunately performance and applications is incredibly subjective, depending on hardware, applications and external connections including File I/O, network traffic, database calls, extra libraries and so on. On top of that, for testing cross-platform performance comparisons, you have to test something small that all application can do, so this usually comes down to math problems, which has very little to do with web apps (and lowest level languages always win). You have to test a larger app (like a pet market), but if you're just going for speed then you do a lot of caching, you remove extra objects and flatten object hierarchies, etc., it's not a fair test. Do I wish we could just see a true performance comparison in a fair and impartial manner? Yeah, but I know it's a pipe dream. Previous versions of CF have had a performance brief written up, e.g. the CF9 one: http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/pdfs/cf9_performancebrief_ue.pdf Do you know if we will get one for CF10? I'm really interested to see how Tomcat helps under pressure. I know performance briefs are typically one-sided (I've been watching the jQuery blog for a long time now - yeah, i said it). Even still, I like to see what's improved and what I can expect. -nathan ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| 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:351909 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
