Well, it's all a matter of perception... mine only takes 2-3mins but when
your sitting there watching it (with CPU at 100%) and your ""Ubergruppen
Fuhrer" is sitting there also... it can seem forever.

I'll dig that out, sounds useful. Cold Fusion does suggest using the MS SQL
server.

I think my biggest problem was the CF Transaction process that made a huge
temporary file of 130mb+, filling C: drive and stuffing the server. I'm not
using it now and it seems to be much lighter on resources though I'll have
to use other, less convenient, methods to roll back from failure now.

And thanks for saying it. :)
