Hi,
As part of the research for Centaur (next major version of ColdFusion
aka ColdFusion 9), we need your feedback on ColdFusion 8 features, what
enhancements do you need in them, what new features you want in the new
release etc.

Even when we have updated a schema in the past the execution plan is trashed
and a new one is prepared and we do not experience any problems. Why would a

In the ColdFusion administration there is an option for caching or keeping

You should be able to do it with code. Using the Admin API you can switch a
