Hi Everyone,

I'm quite new to Coldfusion, having only used it for the 6 months I've
been in my current job, so there are many things that I just don't
understand yet.

My current problem is performance.

I have a Fusebox 3 app running on Coldfusion. There are quite a few db
queries that use joins of 2 or 3 tables, but nothing that should
confound the server too much. In fact the sys admin has checked his
logs and tells me the querries aren't running slowly.

Most of the time, the app runs smoothley. But every now and again, it
just hangs for an extended period (30+ seconds). I only noticed this
behaviour once I'd deployed the app to our production server. But then
I started looking at the dev server and the same problem could be seen
there, only on a smaller scale. When I run the Coldfusion Admins
debugging tools (execution times) on the dev machine, I get occasional
execution times of 400 to 1000 (or more) ms on the dev machine. For
comparison, the app normaly runs in less than 100ms. The timeouts are
10 times (or more) longer on production. I assume this is due to the
load on the production machine.

I'm perfectly willing to accept that my own inexperience with CF has
lead me to write some bad code. But I'm having trouble reliably
reproducing the effect on the server. I can click through the same
sequence of steps repeatedly, and have it run smoothy 9 times out of
10, then bang! Hangtime!

The only common factor I can find is that it seems to happen about
every 100 - 110 seconds (a little less than every 2 minutes). The
session variables are set to time out in 20 minutes, so I don't think
they are causing the problem.

I need to go over my code with a fine tooth comb, but there's a part
of me that suspects the server. Could this be some kind of caching
issue? And how best can I debug this?

Any advice greatly welcome,

Lucien.
