Just a few questions from an end user perspective.
When programming something like CF, how does a Programmer approach perfoormance handling. IE Does one go all out with tools available and worry about performance later? Do you follow some type of guideline from hardware manufacturers? Or maybe you just make all of the components involved play well together.
I bring this up here as I hope that I get a programmers view of this, versus the anonymous user on the net. Is performance, with something CF related
some type of "pipe dream" You always find people talking about better performance, but no one seems to know what that means. End users may use a piece of software that just "works", but they don't understand how or why it works. I don't need to know that either, but from a theoretical position of those who create the software, some insight would interesting.
What I really want to know, is how do you make the best use of the available hardware?
Feel free to move this into the general chat or other area.
