First, you're checking to see if thisPage equals about -- but that word, "about", isn't in quotes, which means it isn't a string. But the variable you passed in is a string, so you'll need to wrap the word "about" in quotes. In addition to that, you'll need to use the equality operator (==), instead of the equals sign. In ActionScript, the equals sign *sets* a value to something, while the double equals sign *checks* if one value matches another. onClipEvent(load) { if (thisPage == "about") { ...

> the math operator ^ is deprecated in CF8, Cite? It certainly doesn't say anything like that in the docs: http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/Expressions_03.html {quote} ^ Exponentiation: Return the result of a number raised to a power (exponent). Use the caret character (^) to separate the number from the power; for example, 2^3 is 8. Real and negative numbers are allowed for both the base and the exponent. However, any expression that equates to an imaginary number, such -1^.5 results in the string "-1.#IND. ColdFusion does not support imaginary or complex numbers. {quote} But anyway, if something is deprecated, it still works same as it ever did, it's simply flagged for obsolescence. So even if the ^ operator was deprecated, there'd be no difference in how it worked before and after deprecation. CF seldom deprecates things, and even when deprecated, things are seldom actually obsoleted. A good example is the parameterExists() function: it's be deprecated since (at least) CF5. It's still there and functional in CF8 though. > <cfset mtp = #rem# * 100 * ( (1 - ((1+ (#tme#/100))^-#duree#) ) ) / #tme#> Well you don't need those pound signs in there, but having them just makes your code look untidy, it doesn't actually impact anything.

Fair enough. Youd didn't really tell us that part before, though. So you have a calling template which calls an equivalent to this function for 100-odd tables? Yikes. I'll reiterate my question whether this can't possibly be done DB to DB or via a bulk insert. > thing, but ultimately my question really has nothing to do with this particular > tool. I would really just like to understand why the out of memory issue exists > when the code is in a CFC method versus when it is in a CFM. This issue has Well it kinda is about this particular tool, because it's this code that's causing the problems (or something about the calling code, or something like that). Obviously there's some idiosyncasy of it which gives you problems when it's in a CFC method as opposed to mainline code, but I would not immediately say it's a generic problem with CFCs vs CFMs. Just yet. Is this the first table that's being migrated? Or is it buried somewhere within the other 100-odd? Is it always this one, or can it happen on any of them? Can you inspect the memory usage between each table's function, and see if there's anything unexpected going on (other than it running out of memory, which is - in itself - unexpected!). Do you have 100-odd methods (one for each table) in the CFC, or lots of individual CFCs? I guess you could call a GC in between each table's processing, and see if you can keep check on memory usage that way. Or maybe check memory levels within that loop you've got, and if it starts flaring up, doa GC then. It's not advised to call GCs "by hand", but I have found it's helped some times. Have you sued CF's server monitor or something like FusionReactor to check if anything unexpected is consuming RAM? I think you should try adding <cfqueryparam> tags to your queries: CF might be cachinng some info about them, and that could be leaking memory or something. Maybe try <cfobjectcache action = "clear"> between each method callor something. I wonder if there's something about the fact you're replacing oldInfo with a new query within a loop that has a condition based on oldInfo's record count. Possibly this is forcing CF to maintain the previous oldInfo queries in the background, so you're not actually overwriting the previous one with the next one when you requery, you're actually just getting a new pointer assigned. Do me a favour, and do this: <cfset iRecCount = OldInfo.RecordCount> <cfloop condition="iRecCount GT 0"> [...] <!--- Load the old info ---> <cfquery name="OldInfo" datasource="dsOld" maxrows="#GetRecsCount#"> [...] </cfquery> <cfset iRecCount = OldInfo.RecordCount> </cfloop> This is a slightly far-fetched notion, but it doesn't hurt to try: it's a pretty easy change. > come up enough times now that I'd like to determine if there is a workaround. > Due to the deadline I'm on, I haven't tried simply assigning the query object > to an empty string at the end of each iteration yet, but I will try to do so > soon so I can report on the result. It might pay to apply a test rig to this notion first: 0) on a dev machine without any other activity 1) grab the heap usage 2) load a big query in 3) grab the heap usage (should losely reflect the fact you've just stuck a chunk of data in RAM) 4) set the query variable to be an empty string 5) grab the heap usage. Check to see if the memory is reclaimed straight away. You might need to do a GC between 4+5 for it to take effect. I speculate that the RAM won't get freed up straight away, and you might be consuing it faster than the JVM can clear it. -- Adam ... View more

On top of what Ian sid, you should <cfqueryparam> your dynamic values so your not having to recompile a new query with every single insert you're doing. This would hurt the DB rather CF though, I would have thought. It's just poor form and a bit of a performance hit, whichever way one looks at it, though. There's a chance CF is caching something on its side of things for each query though. You should also row-limit your query on the DB end as well as the CF end of things. Using maxrows just tells CF to "hang-up" after it gets the rows it needs... the DB will still be getting all the rest of them. Again... this hits the DB more than it hits CF, but it will slow everything down. You might be able to improve the performance of your query by filtering the products table before doing the join: FROM ( select top 1000 * from products where product_id > <cfqueryparam value="#startRedId#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer"> order by product_id ) PRODUCTS LEFT JOIN [etc] None of this will make any difference vis-a-vis CFC vs CFM, but it's not going to hurt ;-) Is there no way you can do this DB->DB, rather than putting CF in the middle of things?

Well nothing is obvious in the function, accept this only shows one iteration of 1000 records, so what is the logic to iterate over this code 200 times? I suspect that is the likely source of the problem. A var scoped variable is local to the current instance of a function. It is not going to be reused from call to call of the function, as far as I know. But the garbage collection is not going to run while in the middle of a process intensive request where this function is being run 200 times. I suspect the solution may be as simple as reasigning the OldInfo to an empty string at the end of the function though, but I am not sure. Also there is some strangeness I did not immediately understand in the code. First, you run the "OldInfo" query twice in the function. Once at the beginning and once at the end. Secondly, you truncate the new table every time you iterate over this function. Wouldn't that lead to just the last 1000 records existing in the new table? ... View more

I think you have to identify *why* your system is running out of threads. If it is some programming fault that his firing off thread after thread without cleaning up after itself, then no matter how much computer resources your throw at it, sooner or later this process is going to eat up all the available threads. If your application is an intensive application being used by lots of users and it just needs this many threads, then you may need more systems to share the work load. If something is hanging a process so that lots new request has to use a new thread because none of the old ones have been release, you are still going to run out of them no matter how many you have. In other words, there is no system that has unlimited resources. So if you are bumping against the limits, you need to identify why so an appropriate resolutions can be applied.
