+== Why Is My Model-Glue Application Slow? ==
+
+Model-Glue, in and of itself, is really really fast. The latest version, Model-Glue 3, is the fastest yet and will help you build powerful, performant applications in record time. If you are experiencing slowness with your Model-Glue application, here are some things you can do to fix it:
+
+1) '''Turn Off the Report Execution Times setting in your !ColdFusion Administrator Debugging Section'''
+
+Report Execution Times is bloody murder on '''ANY''' CFC-based application. Not only does it slow all execution to a crawl, but the times reported are flat out wrong by orders of magnitude. There is never a reason to have this setting enabled when running any CFC-based application. Period.
+
+(This is an old issue. Dave Carabetta has a good post here: http://www.cbetta.com/blog/index.cfm/2006/2/13/CFCs-and-Performance-with-Report-Execution-Times-Turned-On )
+
+2) '''Turn Off Memory Tracking'''
+
+If you are using the Server Monitor, turn off Memory Tracking. Memory Tracking will also slow a CFC based application to a crawl. You won't get any useful information, so turn it off.
+
+3) '''Set Reload=False'''
+
+If you are in a production situation, check to see the Reload property in your application-specific !ColdSpring.xml is set to false. This is a commonly overlooked task when deploying an application to production.
+
+4) '''Turn Model-Glue Debugging Off'''
+
+If you are in a production situation, check to see the Debug property in your application-specific !ColdSpring.xml is set to false. Model-Glue Debug writes a lot of content to the browser so if you don't need it, disable it. This is another commonly overlooked task when deploying an application to production.
