Isaac Dealey [mailto:info;turnkey.to] Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 8:10 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Memory Leakage I would check your persistent variables. Make sure you're properly locking _all_ session, application and server variables you may be using. Check the timeout's on those variables also -- as a for instance, if you have the maximum duration for session variables set to 3 days, what's going to happen is a user's going to log in, close the browser, log in again, close the browser, log in the next day, close the browser, and at the end of your 3 day period for those session variables, there will be 1 active set of session variables for him, plus a dozen or so other sets of long since abandoned session variables ( as much as 3 days old ). This is of course a fairly extreme example and I doubt you're actually doing this, but it's something to check. Hi all, I have a site that has a little problem, it seems to leak memory like a sieve, currently it's using around 800meg - after 24 hours. Initially I thought it was probably all the cached queries I was using, so I uncached everything, and that has improved the situation a little by slowing down the leak, but it is still leaking. Does anybody know of a way to see how the leaked memory is being used (i.e what is causing it's allocation to the CF engine in the first place) ?

RE: PLEASE END THIS (RE: The Hidden CF factor was RE: How Good is the Job Market for ColdFusion?)
Actually this thread kind of interests me. My company is still doing large ammounts of CF work so I find myself somewhat emmersed in CF only apps, and end up oblivious to the differences in it and other languaes (shortcoming / advantages etc). CF does everything I need / want it to do now and forseeabley in the near future and rather well I might add. Like most other Web Developers I have the obligatory few years of ASP, VB, PHP experience (havent really been able to delve into .NET yet) and I still find that CF is the most useful in the majority of my projects. Besides, this thread has been about the different thingt languages can / cant do well / not very well, and imo are applicable to this list. If this list were supposed to be about code only then there would be no debates on code efficiency / standards / best practices and quite frankly I would not get as much out of it.

cfscript
function fncQryGetAllUsers(recordset,orderby,sort) {

You can't use cftags in cfscript. Please read the documentation on
cfscript - it should explain a lot. Note that in CFMX you can write UDFs
w/ the tag, cffunction. This would allow you to write queries in UDFs.

RE: ISP Blocking Session or cookie variables
is your site delivered through a frameset that is on another server? If so is he using IE6? remember IE6 now has the p3p privacy policy in effect which prevents '3rd-party' cookies from being placed on a users machine by default, and if your site is delivered through the frameset of another site then your site becomes that 3rd party. We have run into this problem a few times recently.

ClusterCats, Verity, Cluster Questions
Here is the scenario. We have decided to cluster our server environment to improve performance as well as add more fail over assurance. Environment: 4 Identical servers. 1 File Server (where all of the files will reside) From what I have gathered about Cluster Cats, it requires that your firewall see it as 1 server (1 IP address) thus allowing Cluster cats to route the traffic to the appropriate server. There is good documentation on how to do this, and it seems fairly simple, using Cisco Local Director. However, we do not use Local Director. We have a Netscreen firewall and will be bale to do whatever DNS stuff is necessary. Can anyone advise on how to satisfy Cluster Cat's needs in this environment? Also, seeing as how we will have 4 servers (initially) that will be serving as the web server, how do we enable verity to work identically across all of the servers? Will we need to duplicate the collections? the reason we chose to go with a central NFS as opposed to storing all of the application's files on each server is to eliminate the need to duplicate files across server, etc. if you need any more details please to not hesitate to ask. as always, any and all help is greatly appreciated. -chris.alvarado [application.developer] 4 Guys Interactive, Inc. __ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.

RE: Random CF Service Spikes
just went through a similar issue here. Although we WERE running CF 4.5 Eventually we narrowed it down to a Verity issue. People were uploading files that were in excess of 20MB and while trying to index this file, CF would hog nearly 100% of server resources. the solution I came up with was building a nifty custom tag that keeps track of the total size of a collection of files indexed and then creates a new collection if it gets too big and then searches accross multiple collections. It works beautifully and now we have upgraded to CF 5 over the weekend (about to pass out from all of the server migration stuffs we did) and not only to the collection perform a million times better while searching, but CF can index those large files without bombing.

Re: CFFILE Problem/Question
for large file uploads it seems to me that using cfftp would be a better alternative just a thought... -chris.alvarado [application developer] 4|Guys Interactive, Inc. http://www.4guys.com - Original Message - From: Robert Everland [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 8:11 AM Subject: RE: CFFILE Problem/Question Well if hundreds of people are uploading at one time there could be a problem. CF uses the memory of the server when it is uploading files, so basically the bigger the file, more memory it needs. Though it will give the memory back once it's uploaded, but if it's hundred uploading there lies the problem. I don't know of any file limiting tools offhand. Robert Everland III Dixon Ticonderoga Web Developer Extraordinaire -Original Message- From: Cody [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 14, 2002 4:58 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: CFFILE Problem/Question I have a question about file uploads in ColdFusion. I built a Content Management System for a college that allows the entire staff to go to a secure administration area and update various sections of the website that they're authorized to edit. This includes the ability to add files (movies, documents, graphics, etc.) to a unique folder that is created when their user account is setup. Anyway, I'm using a standard form to get the files from their computer, and I'm processing it with CFFILE. The question is, what if someone tries to upload an 80MB file for example, could this cause their thread in ColdFusion to timeout, or cause the web server to choke, etc. I'm worried that allowing hundreds of users to upload anything they want, could create some major problems (10 users uploading 10MB files at the same time for example). Has anyone had any problems with this? I think it could mostly be solved by not allowing certain file uploads that are beyond a certain size (like 2MB). And on the chance they need to upload something bigger, they'll just have to physically give it to an administrator to place on the server. I just don't know how to stop them from uploading a file too large (java applet?). Having users ftp files would almost defeat the purpose of having such a slick CMS. Also, the website will be getting heavy traffic as well (website is for a college), and all this on a single Win2k machine (PIII 700 with 500MB ram) with SQLServer2k, and CF5. Any help would be most appreciated! Cody __ Why Share?
