Speed advantage CreateObject in applicationstart()

[Risto]

Is it faster to create the cfpayment.api.core object in onApplicationStart instead of in the method/function
that is being called on every charge? I assume so but just checking?

Thanks

Creating it is very lightweight, but this is really a regular ColdFusion question. Yes, it's more performant to cache the instance in a persistent scope but it comes with the regular set of trade offs with putting anything else in the application scope.

It's not worth the hassle.

Once your application starts accepting many thousands of payments per second then you can put it into the Application scope.

Until then, the amount of time you've spent researching this vastly eclipses the amount of time saved by the users.

Premature Optimization.

Thanks guys, I know object creation is not much of an issue these days but I'm always interested in other opinions.
