I'm of the opinion that Macromedia cooked the benchmark results to get
what they wanted. Either that, or I'm reading them wrong. Macromedia's
benchmark document is here:
http://www.macromedia.com/software/coldfusion/productinfo/performance_brief/cf5_perf_brief.pdf
Please check out page 12 of the PDF.
In the table of settings, note that Macromedia set the 4.5 server to 1
thread per cpu. This is contrary to their own 4.5 tuning specs, and
certainly nothing any of us would do on a production server
('simultaneous requests' in the table). Am I reading this wrong? On
the 5.0 server, they set to 4 threads per cpu.
I find it hard to believe that they would skew their testing so
obviously, but I can't find any other conclusion.
