Load Testing and Tuning CF Applications (One Day Seminar)

Are you doing performance/load testing? Do you think you needn't bother? Or that it's too expensive, or too complicated? If you haven't given it serious thought, this talk is for you.

More important, those who have no interest in load testing or are already doing it will still benefit, as it presents a variety of tips and techniques for improving the effectiveness of your CF programs and the entire CF server that haven't been cataloged anywhere else.

We'll review a variety of tools as well as provide some benchmarking information on alternative configuration and coding choices in CF and CFMX.
