Hi, Teddy, I found the setting you mentioned to track slow running pages. If you go to Administrator, Debugging & Logging, the third option is Logging Settings. The first checkbox option provides the option to record slow running pages, which gets logged in server.log file. The initial setting is 30 seconds. I am thinking of making this 10. Any suggestions?
Also, lets say I enable this logging on production server for 5-15 minutes during work hours, is it going to be an issue or CF is smart enough to write log file and people wouldn't notice the slowness? Let me know. Thanks, <Ajas Mohammed /> http://ajashadi.blogspot.com We cannot become what we need to be, remaining what we are. No matter what, find a way. Because thats what winners do.
