yes it’s technically wrong, how can 4 articles exist in a trilogy -But Ike has published a fourth article comparing the common Frameworks HERE. Rather than amend his 3rd article using new found knowledge from various members of lists, forums etc he decided to write the 4th installment to the trilogy leaving the contents of the previous articles ‘as is’.
Previously his tests were using ColdFusion debug times for measurement but a number of people commented that using GetTickCount() would be a better choice to measure performance via, especially (as he’s proven) Mach-II executes a mamouth 7 times faster when debugging is disabled!!! This time using production mode switches and an efficient code base, execution times ranged from 114ms to 276ms for 50 events per request on CFMX. Fusebox4 code was 6ms slower than the level top performers Fusebox3 and MachII in 114ms.
Whilst performance of code isn’t always the determining factor when choosing a framework these figures put all frameworks on a relatively level playing field when it comes to performance, it’s then down to the developers/project team to weigh up the pro’s and con’s of each.
