[thelist] cold fusion 5 was:(VIRUS!!)

[Daniel J. Cody]

Raymond(or any other cf5 folks) -

I've been looking at upgrading to CF5 but have been concerned a bit 
about he memory req's for it(sure RAM is cheap, but some of us have long 
ass uptimes going and don't want a reboot :).. i understand that its 
x00% faster than cf4.5. is that x00% increase in performance a direct 
result of the extra RAM that is required caching the shit outa 
everything? or, would a cf4.5 box that i have with 128Mb of RAM see the 
same x00% increase if i added another 128Mb or 256Mb of RAM?

Not trying to stir any bad karma here or anything, just looking a 
truthfull opinion that you always provide :)
