Huh?! That makes no sense whatsoever. How does being "eminently suitable for high-volume sites" in any way negate the reality that it's widely used for internal applications? And, of course, internal apps are frequently far, far more data intensive than public sites and are heavily trafficked to boot.

This whole 'Hidden CF Factor' sort of reminds me of 'Wagner's music is better than it sounds' or perhaps 'Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.' What hogwash! Basic statistics tell us that there is probably as much 'hidden' (read: 'intranet') ASP, PHP, and J2EE, proportionately, as their is CF. On the other hand if MM *insists* that CF is 'more pervasive than the visible penetration would indicate' then that puts the lie to what Allaire and MM have said all along...that CF is eminently suitable for high-volume sites in which usage patterns are unpredictable. In all, they can't have it both ways, now can they? :-) Greg ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com
