I run several testsites in different shared hosting configurations where I demo i18n stuff. Since they include the ability to upload files for others, I have them run in a sandbox. General load is below the noise level, but I have ran stresstests on the server for a weekend and didn't encounter any problems. I have not encountered any stability issues with Sandbox Security. I have reported my share of bugs with CF MX in general, but none that had anything to do with Sandbox Security. I only found a bug with Sandbox Security once, but that was a security issue, not a stability issue and Macromedia has released a patch [1] for that. That is not to say there are no issues: - the fact that limiting the number of connections to a datasource does not work (bug 49409) is more likely to have adverse consequences in a shared hosting scenario as on a dedicated server. - I have not yet seen a shared hosting control panel supporting CF MX. - the inability to flush compiled templates from cache is a pain (you can remove them from disk by examining them for a string containing the original file location, but not from RAM) But none of these are stability issues. If I were to configure CF MX Enterprise Edition I would not hesitate to switch on Sandbox Security even if I don't need it, just for the ability to limit file upload to directories where file execution is not enabled and more of that stuff.
