Question

Why is there a max of 25 requests in Coldfusion 9?

Hey

Does anyone know why Coldfusion 9 seems to have an arbitrary limit of 25 requests whether they are running or queued or a combination of the two?

This behavior was not in CF8...

Here are 3 screenshots that show what I mean.

    The very next setting on that Coldfusion Administrator page tells you why. The setting, "Maximum number of running JRun threads", is the upper bound for the total number of the 4 types of request, template, Flash, Web Service, CFC function.That is,

    Maximum number of simultaneous Template requests
    +
    Maximum number of simultaneous Flash Remoting requests
    +
    Maximum number of simultaneous Web Service requests
    +
    Maximum number of simultaneous CFC function requests

    <=

    Maximum number of running JRun threads

    The total for your current settings is 25+5+5+10, or 45. If you wish to go beyond that, you have to increase the setting for maximum number of JRun threads to 46 or more.

    While that might make sense, if you look at my CFSTAT screenshots, the max is 25 not 45.

    That's the question being asked.

    I THINK what BKBK is telling you is that you have a TOTAL MAXIMUM of ALL types of threads of 45.

    Then if you subtract 5 threads you allowed for Flash remoting requests

    AND

    5 Threads for Web Services requests

    AND

    10 Threads for CFC requests

    That leaves only 25 threads for template threads.

    So IF you only increase the allowed number of template threads, but you don't increase the maximum for all types of threads OR reduce one of the other types of threads the same amount, then the former does not do much
