Faster than a speeding bullet? No, it's Railo

Out of curiosity, I decided to dump the client project I'm working on just now into the current Railo 2 Release Candidate.

We're currently developing on CF7.0.2 and using SQL Server 2005 as the database.

So, what was the prognosis?

No code changes were required. It just worked.

It's about 3 times as fast on Railo. No scientific numbers for you. It's just that when I reinit the app, I can usually get up, walk round the office, and when I sit down again, the app is now being served up.

With Railo I only got as far as getting out of my chair.

Pretty damn impressive. Now to see how it goes on CF8.
