Hi Joel,
 
The reason Im using QofQ firstly is because Im lazy and secondly because Im using a lot of date/time matching from the source recordset. The source recordset has about 160 odd records so it's not that large. What I am finding though is QofQ is not really that efficient. I was wondering what other ppl's thoughts are on this approach. I was under the impression this approach would be faster then hitting the db 50 odd times pulling out recordsets containing one or two records each. Maybe I will have to convert the orginial recordset into arrays, and then pull out the data that way instead.
 
Any thoughts?

As someone who does not use QoQ that often, here are some other ways you can do this:
 
- If you want to look up a certain value, create a referential struct based on the column you wish to lookup, containing the vital information
- If you want to create little queries, you could try query functions (querynew, queryAddColumn etc)
- You could try converting the query into an array, CFC, function or other structure that retrieves data in a more relevant way
- Use query caching and the startrow / endrow features of cfloop
- Do lots of little queries with the database instead of continually messing around with one big query stored in memory
 
CPU and memory are different things. Someone with a CS degree should clear that up for you. Storing data in memory doesn't mean that you avoid processing the data when you start using it in QoQ.
 
I don't know why people use QoQ anyway. It seems limited compared to other ways of processing data. That's just a personal opinion. I know it's probably extremely useful in very specific cases.

Subject: [cfaussie] QofQ

When running a page that uses excessive QofQ from a single query the CPU goes bezerk. I was under the impression that QofQ was simply accessing a recordset from memory. I have a couple of questions if anyone has some ideas, workarounds for this. Why does the cfstat utility record QofQ's as DB hits/sec? Also what methods have ppl used to improve performance on pages that use a lot of QofQ - where talking about 50 odd QofQ calls to a single recordset.
 
TIA
