You can pick and choose which one of these you consider high profile
http://www.fusebox.org/sites/index.cfm and with your tests I remember zdnet
testing CF to run only at 45 request per second on the best of conditions.
Not saying 35 is great, but considering the highest CF is going to go is 45,
I don't see fuebox as a huge performance hit. And like you said the tags can
be tweaked, which they have rather recently. But I think I will end this
now, as this is going too much into preaching territory.

Certainly.
I have found Fusebox sites are able to handle about 35 requests per
second on average. This is of course variable depending on the
application and its requirements. However, I can tell you that 35
requests per second is quite slow. The big killer appears to be the use
of custom tags. Of course there are various types performance tweaks
that can be made to Fusebox beyond custom tags, but nothing that would
have a huge impact.
I challenge you to name a high profile site done in Fusebox that scales.

Have you ever run any scalability tests on fusebox? We didn't
pick
it because it was popular, almost the entire group already codes in it.
The
fusebox.org group has run a lot of scalability tests on it and it scales
as
much as CF does. They aren't doing anything crazy with the code, the
most
they are doing is using includes. Not thousands of include, but maybe
per
page there are 10. There are a lot of high profile sites that scale
already
that use fusebox. You should really do some research before you assume
things and post to a list. Just the attitude you came to the group with
is
ridiculous, everyone here is eager to help, but you seem to want to
negotiate with us for your time. Well we are all volunteers here, you're
not
the greatest CF programmer on earth and we don't need you. I would
rather
have a programmer with no experience willing to help than someone who
can
make an application with hundreds of thousands of hits with an attitude
like
yours.

I wasn't suggesting doing OOP. In fact I never understood why people
keep trying to do OOP with CF. I am suggesting that you need a
methodology that scales and Fusebox doesn't. Choosing a methodology
isn't a popularity contest. It is about figuring our what is the best
for the project's requirements. In this case you are choosing a popular
methodology for dynamic web sites instead of determining your
application's requirements and then choosing a methodology.

Not to get on a rant or anything but CF alone by itself is not an OOP
language, most of the programmers including myself have no expereience
in
doing OOP (though a lot on the list may). Fusebox is about as close to
an
organized way of programming CF as you can get, it's not new and it has
proven itself in a lot of instances. It's not better than Java and it's
not
better than OOP, but this is CF. So we're sorry you don't wish to help
us,
but a final decision had to be made to use a standard methodology and
Fusebox was the most popular on the list.

My team and I are currently building a CMS using CF and Java that has to
handle hundreds of thousands of content objects and scale to handle
millions of page requests an hour. I would be happy to contribute to an
open source CMS that can do the same thing. I may even be able to open
source code we have created here at DevX for our CMS. However, I am
unwilling to contribute to a project that shoots itself in the foot by
using something like Fusebox. It is important to use a scalable and
extensible application framework and architecture. Fusebox is neither.
While Fusebox is good for people who don't know how to create their own
architecture and/or framework, it should be avoided by those that do.
