"while most CF applications struggle to achieve 100 page requests per second."
100 cf pg/sec equates to 360,000 pg req/hr or 8.6 million page req/day. We are not talking requests we are talking page hits. Total number of hits would probably be around 50 million/day with this type of traffic depending on the ratio of cf hits to staic content. I am curious to know how many of you on the list have this kind of traffic to your website? So if CF can handle 100 pg req/sec can it handle the load for your site?? So what is scalable and how much load do you need to support? And really how many of you really need 100,000 req/sec to your site? That equates to 8,640,000,000 hit/day. Wow thats a lot of traffic. Brandon disclaimer: these numbers were multiplied without accounting for peak loads during a 24 hour time period. -----Original Message----- From: Matt Liotta [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2003 10:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Macromedia.com scalability (was : RE: [CFCDev] MVCF at benorama.com) A well setup web server could serve 10,000 page requests per second, while most CF applications struggle to achieve 100 page requests per second. That is a 100x difference, so surely you can see that if most of Macromedia's requests are for a file as opposed to a mixture of Flash, CF, and database stuff then surely the load they claim doesn't apply to CF directly.
