Jeff,
I have heard the comments before about there being memory issues etc. with Reactor, but I have never experienced them myself in the past. I am now working with Doug Hughes at Alagad and we were talking about this as he was having performance issues with an application using Reactor. The issues were bad enough that he brought in Mike Brunt (WebApper, CF performance testing extraordinaire) to do a bunch of performance tests on Reactor and this application. It turned out that there were no issues in Reactor at all and that the performance issues were related to another piece of code. So, while I don't know if it is ever possible to say any tool or framework is bug free, it has not been our experience that there were any performance issues that were Reactor's doing. -- Jeff Chastain Alagad, Inc.

Take a look at Transfer (www.transfer-orm.com). It is an ORM as well, but more efficient and supposedly better under load than Reactor. We used Reactor for a project last year and had issues with load so we scrapped it before we went to production. Transfer supposedly addresses these issues and goes further. I have not used it yet, but saw an interesting demo of it at cfObjective() two weeks ago. I think Dave Shuck even did a preso using it at last weeks meeting. Dave S.: What is your experience with Reactor vs. Transfer? -JSLucido _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of derek bumpas Sent: Wednesday, May 16, 2007 11:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [DFW CFUG] Reactor Question I've been spending a lot of time with Doug Hughes's reactor and am loving it. I do have a quick question for you guys: Is there anyway to tell reactor to ignore a database column. I have a MySQL timestamp field that is set to update on changes by MySQL. When using the Reactor objects, Reactor by default sets these to null (I'm not setting a value.) Any ideas? Thanks, Derek
