Raymond, Can you perhaps quantify a little in terms of the level of stress that you have found to trigger this "behavior"?
If it does turn out to be a "bug" and it isn't rectified in Red Sky then there are some serious implications for CFC based application frameworks such as FBMX which of course relies on an application level CFC. In addition, migrating to use of the server scope instead (if that turns out to be a solution) would not be practical in most cases.

Well, if you take the process of recreating the object out, you _will_ save time. It may just be a very small amount of time. ;) > As for load issues, macromedia.com is heavily CFC-based and > uses a lot > of CFCs stored in server scope (we're the only application in town so > we don't use application scope :) and we've never seen the sort of > issues Ray has seen - even with tens of thousands of active > concurrent > users (we have 15,000-20,000 active sessions across six CFMX > instances > during morning peak load). The bugs I found were confirmed by MACR engineering, however, they were always stored in the application scope, so maybe that had an impact. Actually, since it was so easy for me to reproduce the bugs locally with a stress tool, I'll see if the server scope makes a difference. -Ray ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
