On the subject of performance, thought you'd be interested in this
chart:

http://www.macromedia.com.au/robin/serverSizing.swf

It plots average request time vs concurrent user sessions for 95%, 99%,
99.9% and 99.9% of user requests to be serviced in less than 2 seconds.
It's based on a queuing theory algorithm and assumes one click per 15
seconds in an average user session (which seems to be an industry
rule-of-thumb).

I talk about this a bit more in Chapter (I think) 22 of Dynamic
Publishing with ColdFusion MX.  I also have the original Excel
spreadsheet with the formula and a worksheet that an expereinced
developer could use to estimate average request time across an
application once the UI design is done.

Cheers,
