Certainly you have to take static load into account. My point though is that if most of the load is static-based then using a high load number as a way to showing that the dynamic piece must be good is a flawed argument. The dynamic piece may well be good, but there is no public information to know for sure and until there is, Macromedia.com should NOT be used an example for CF's ability to handle load.
