Badly designed database access can have a huge impact on the time pages take to render. IIRC, Ben Forta said that poor SQL was something he frequently saw amongst ColdFusion developers (and I'm as guilty as most). I bet that in almost all applications (heavily trafficked or not) would benefit far more from attention being paid to those areas where significant performance increases can be obtained relatively "cheaply" (i.e. SQL optimisation) than by fastidiously coding every iif() as cfif /cfifs. -- Aidan Whitehall <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Macromedia ColdFusion Developer Fairbanks Environmental Ltd +44 (0)1695 51775 Queen's Awards Winner 2003 <http://www.fairbanks.co.uk/go/awards> Fairbanks uses anti-spam filtering.
