Thanks, Ajas. As for your problem, it's not at all uncommon--and in fact it's a potentially severe problem that I believe has caused some to abandon CF, thinking that "it can't scale". What's most tragic about this is that it's a single check-box that can resolve it, but the default in CF is for it to NOT be checked. Once you understand what it does and how it works, if you can turn it off (by checking the checkbox), then it can make all the difference for some CF shops, and yours seems one well-suited to it.
I won't elaborate with a long note -- this time! :-) -- but I can point those interested in this to either a (lengthy) blog entry I did or the recording of a CFMeetup presentation I did that addresses the issue: http://www.carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2006/10/4/bots_and_spiders_and _poor_CF_performance http://experts.na3.acrobat.com/p56344520/ I will add, as well, that this is the very sort of problem that I often help people with in my consulting (whether finding if this is the explanation for troubles, or once found helping them remediate the problem.) It's a problem that's not only more widespread than many may realize, but it's also not well-documented in bringing together the several points that need to be understood. Sadly, it's hard to communicate all that needs to be understood in just a couple of bullets, so one either should read/listen to the resources above or I can help out with a shared session of 15-30 minutes. More on that at carehart.org/consulting. (I hope folks will forgive if that seems a sales pitch. I simply know no other way to communicate the opportunity.) /charlie From: ad...@acfug.org [mailto:ad...@acfug.org] On Behalf Of Ajas Mohammed Sent: Sunday, January 24, 2010 10:15 PM To: discussion@acfug.org Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Ideal memory & Configuration for CF Production server? Thanks Charlie and others as well. Charlie, your long emails are always helpful. Thanks for sharing. :-) I was looking at client storage tables in the 15 databases we have and the record count is about 388466 in both CDATA and CGLOBAL. And this count is pretty much same in *Every* 15 of the databases CDATA, CGLOBAL. I am trying to find why we have so many records. If the flush is set for 1 hr 7 minutes by default, then I wonder why we have so many records. I believe we have client variables to expire if not visited in 2 days or so. Any thoughts about high number of records in CDATA & CGLOBAL. Can people share their numbers i.e. record count etc Thanks, <Ajas Mohammed /> http://ajashadi.blogspot.com We cannot become what we need to be, remaining what we are. No matter what, find a way. Because thats what winners do. You can't improve what you don't measure. Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.

I for one appreciate your efforts! OT - was asked yesterday during a bus dev call "what is your site built in/with" that old saw. When I said cold fusion they chuckled. This from a 26 year old. No matter. He asked what other sites are built with CF. That old saw. Used to be a list but I am not sure it's kept up anymore. The one that came to mind was Bank of America, but there are other big ones. _____________________ Derrick Peavy ------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by FusionLink <http://www.fusionlink.com> ------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, manage your profile @ http://www.acfug.org?fa=login.edituserform For more info, see http://www.acfug.org/mailinglists Archive @ http://www.mail-archive.com/discussion%40acfug.org/ List hosted by http://www.fusionlink.com -------------------------------------------------------------
