>Also, stability can often be based on the quality of the coding itself I agree, performance too. I *assume* that for a benchmark test they would have written some decent code and then used that, as well as testing their existing site... I have heard reports from a guy that writes very tight code that his system runs slower on bd.net than CFMX.... reliable performance stats are very hard to nail down... -----Original Message----- From: Burns, John D [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 June 2005 15:39 To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: 5th Most Trafficked Site Switches to BlueDragon I don't understand that one either. Did they switch from 5 to BD or from MX to BD? Also, stability can often be based on the quality of the coding itself. I'm not saying that BD doesn't offer a better product than MM or that myspace isn't loving it, I'm just saying that the way it was presented seems flawed.

Comparing Blue Dragon to CF 5 is kind of an unfair comparison. Congrats to New Atlanta, and I hope this will boost some of their efforts and allow them to grow even more, but I just wanted to point out that the comparison seemed flawed to me.
