I notice that MySpace is so darn slow! Is that the servers or the code I wonder?

As for 64-bit support, I spoke at a conference in Rome last November with Ben Forta, where he said publicly it's unlikely that Scorpio will provide native 64-bit support. You can also read the comments by Damon Cooper (CFMX Director of Engineering) regarding 64-bit support (he's less than enthusiastic): http://www.fekke.com/blog/index.cfm/2006/12/20/Does-ColdFusion-need-64-bit-S upport-Short-answer-Yes Our plans are to provide native 64-bit support for BlueDragon 7.0 on the widest number of platforms possible. In fact, there's already a beta of native 64-bit BD 7.0 for Red Hat Linux 4 (RHEL4) and the x64 architecture: ftp://ftp.newatlanta.com/public/bluedragon/7_0b2/server/BlueDragon_Server_JX _70_326-Linux64.sh Vince Bonfanti New Atlanta Communications, LLC http://www.newatlanta.com > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steven > Ross > Sent: Friday, January 19, 2007 9:48 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] MySpace growth > > I think the most interesting part is that they no longer use CF, > actually the article mentions that they moved away from CF awhile ago. > And the reason why they are using BD .NET is because they want to run > native .NET code as it is faster.
