Yep, lurking as ever. I only jump in when I can add something unique. As for who has time to do the testing, well, I didn't mean to imply you needed to. :-) Just meant to say that if someone wanted to confirm for themselves, they could. I don't think the idea of running CF7 on a newer JVM was something many thought to try (or knew they could try easily with a J2EE deployment). As for the differences, well, it could be just like any engineering effort: in the few months between releases, you may well do optimizations that you just couldn't attend to in the run up to the previous release, with that often focusing on adding new features, etc. /charlie

Hey Charlie.good to see you are still lurking. You obviously have me confused for someone with loads of free time. ;-) It just seems really crazy to think of how the CF team touted how much faster 7.1 was than 7.0, and now we are hearing the same about 8.

One can find out very easily, I'd think, Mark: First, while CF Server wasn't supported on any JVM but that underlying JRun (which was 1.4x), one could certainly deploy CF 7 on another J2EE server (using the J2EE deployment option in the Enterprise or Developer edition) which then could run on whatever JVM the underlying J2EE server ran upon. I think there may have been some minor issues with some code not running, but I heard stories of people doing it successfully. That would certainly allow you to compare true apples to apples (albeit only within a given J2EE server deployment). Second, I suppose someone may well be able to downgrade their CF8 Server deployment to an older JVM, to keep all things equal within that deployment option (of course, I'm sure there are some new CF8 things that require the updated JVM),. Just throwing out thoughts. I've not tried any of this myself. /charlie --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Houston ColdFusion Users' Group" discussion list.
