"The content/app was written for CF4.5..." Again, it might be time to start thinking about streamlining for MX. I'm *glad* you tested your application, at least I hope these specs below are not coming from your production server. However, this shouldn't be your source of frustration. This should be groundwork for you to build a case and present to your boss, "Hey Boss, we've got some work to do, check this out..."
MX is new (should be considered 1.0 for all intent and purposes of a total rewrite of an existing application). MX is the future (sorry to say it, but ... I think the rest of the world is moving forward with or without you). A proper sweep through the "Content/app written for CF4.5" should be done to identify the bottle necks, move some of the logic to .cfc's, etc. Have you written one application geared towards CFMX yet? Have you seen the speed? I think that once you've written _1_ application (heck, develop more than one, we encourage it!) geared towards CFMX, you'll see what the rest of us are seeing and I think you'll be pleased with the results (as the rest of us are). Please don't take this email personally. This isn't hammering YOU (except, you need to calm down some and get back to reality instead of swearing and pointing fingers about it all). I think the biggest problem I've seen so far is the "branding" of ColdFusion 5. They went from CF4.5.2 to CF5 ... and didn't realize that they can safely bring their 4.5 apps into CF5 and get such a huge speed burst without rewriting any of their crappy coding. CFMX is a different animal, as their has been several discussions that proper care, education and planning will be needed when approaching CFMX. Granted, some of us out here are still learning it all... some of us out here have had the advantage of being a beta tester and are pretty much up to speed, but ... even I'm finding *NEW* things inside CFMX that I haven't found or played with yet. ~Todd At 11:17 AM 7/27/2002 -0400, you wrote: >Todd, > This was my original post.
