It was kind of a rhetorical question, meant to enunciate the mandatory
nature of load testing prior to deployment. With free tools like the
Microsoft Web Stress Tool
(http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=E2C0585A-062A-439E-A67D-75A89AA36495&displaylang=en)
there's really no reason to have to go through this particular kind of pain.

I'm not trying to sound abrasive, and I do mean this criticism in a
constructive way: This is the second post you've sent to the list in the
last four days with the words "URGENT" in the subject that describe some
problem with the deployment of your site. I am indeed trying to help (see my
other post with some suggestions) as are others, but I think one thing that
is clear is that you need a bit more discipline in the way you test and
deploy your applications. I hope that your problems get solved, but I also
hope that this experience helps you realize the problems in your current
process and what needs to be improved. One needs to perform diligent testing
before deploying any public web application, but when using pre-beta code
like Reactor or when your testing and production servers are running
differing versions of CF server, then thorough testing is simply mandatory.

Regards,

Brian

Did you load test it prior to release?
