Hi folks -

I think Adobe needs to update their Spec Sheet for CF!

So folks - let me ask - what's the current hardware chipset solution for CF on a Windows-based platform?

Can CF 9 Enterprise handle:

1) a pair of Xeon chips?

2) a pair of i7-980x chips?

Any and all questions and comments are appreciated.

Thanks,

Doug

    Wow, that is interesting to see how old the processors are that are listed (such as on the CF9 requirements page: http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/systemreqs/).

    That said, I've not ever heard of CF not being able to run on any given processor. And really, it would seem more an issue of the JVM rather than CF (though I agree that if the JVM docs have listed more modern processors, then CF ought to list them or test for them.)

    I'll bring this to the attention of some folks on the CF team to see if they may be able to attend to it, perhaps for CF10 if not now.

    Hi Charlie -

    Thanks for the info.

    I was thinking that CF should work on just about any proc, but if Adobe &/or the CF team haven't updated the specs

    for CF 9, then I just had to question it, as a basic CYA.

    Thanks again!

    Sure, and I have raised the question to those I can. I also pointed them to this thread, if they may want to add thoughts here themselves. I wouldn't have high expectations, though, if perhaps there's some corporate requirement to get that clarified. I'd suggest you may have no choice but to go on instinct. We shall see, of course.
