# Reload

The reload setting can be set to TRUE or FALSE.

When TRUE, the application will re-read the ModelGlue.xml, ColdSpring.xml and Reactor.xml files on each request, reloading the framework and using any changes made to these files.

When FALSE, the application will not reload the framework or detect changes to these files.

It is imperative that any application deployed in a production environment have reload set to FALSE.
