Setting 
Default 
Recommendation 
Description 
Maximum number 
of simultaneous CFC 
function requests 
15 
1 if not using 
Remote CFC 
function requests, 
otherwise tuned. 
This setting applies only to CFC 
functions that have access=remote 
specified, when they are invoked via 
a HTTP request, for example: 
/example.cfc?method=MethodNam
e. The ColdFusion AJAX proxy uses 
this method to invoke CFCs. 
If your applications do not make use 
of this feature set to 1. Otherwise 
use load testing to find the optimal 
value for this setting. 
Maximum number 
of simultaneous 
Report threads 
1 
1 
Keep this value at 1 unless you are 
using cfreport heavily. 
Maximum number 
of threads available 
for CFTHREAD 
10 
1 if not using 
cfthread, tuned 
otherwise. 
Set this value to 1 if you are not 
using cfthread. If you do use 
cfthread setting a value too high can 
lead to context switching. 
Timeout requests 
waiting in queue 
after 
60 seconds 
5 seconds (Match 
Request Timeout) 
This setting can generally be set 
equivalent to the Timeout Requests 
After value specified in the Settings 
section. A lower setting here can 
mitigate the effectiveness of DOS 
attacks.

quest_timeout_er
ror.cfm 
Specified 
Specify a HTML file giving the user a 
message to wait and retry their 
request again. The message should 
not disclose the fact that the queue 
timed out.
