Re: WebCatalog vs. Cold Fusion
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 1998
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 21683
interpreted = N
texte = Well, that makes sense. I really haven't had the chance to dig into the documentation like I usually do, but I was hoping that the products produced the same results.I do have another question though, I am migrating a web-based application from a Macintosh web server to a Windows NT server. While doing benchmarks I have noticed that although the NT server is considerably more powerful than our faithful (but old) Mac, the performance when processing the same web pages with WebDNA is dramatically slower on the NT Server. Since this only happens with really complex pages that load several frames I am looking for a coding alternative. Does anyone have any suggestions to help speed it up? Any constructive comments are welcome =)-- Jocelyn Plazewska Webmaster, Jintek, LLC webmaster@jintek.com-----Original Message----- From: John Hill
