Rick,
You're too modest!
In my experience, VFP web applications based on West-wind Web Connect such as FoxInCloud applications do
scale very easily and consistently (even on older versions of WWWC such as 4.68).
For example, here is the profile of a business critical FoxInCloud application in production :
- 6 load based COM servers
- 35 forms/1,200 objects instantiated in memory
- 80 remote views and cursors / 60 datasessions
- 1,400 AJAX user events
- up to 30 concurrent users
- 35,000 requests per day, tallying over 1 billion VFP instructions executed
This application typically runs a full working day
without a single error.
Just recycled every morning at 3 PM using the standard IIS application pool recycling mechanism
Note: the fact that IIS offers so many recycling options denotes that all Web app systems need recycling, including asp.net
