ColdFusion MX 6.1 has been clocked at sending over 1,000,000 messages per
hour (that is one million) using CFMX Enterprise and enabling maintain
connection and spooling to memory (no disk I/O).
The real "problem" is you must have an SMTP server which can handle the
messages as fast as CFMX can stuff them down the pipe.
CFMX 6.1 Standard and CFMX 6.0 have exactly the same delivery throughput,
which is limited to something reasonable, ~25K per hour, a single thread and
no spooling to memory and no maintain connection.

I've been doing pretty much the same thing for years with CF 4.5.1sp2, and
recently 6.1. Neither CF version notices the load, although to be fair I do
throttle down the speed they get fed to the server (which is shared by
several clients, many of which have membership mailing lists) to something
like 3600 per hour per mailing.
My understanding of CF 6.1's mail improvements are that the benefits really
shine on genuinely BIG stuff.
With that said, I tested out Infusion a few weeks back while I was
evaluating whether or not to add a dedicated SMTP engine for those mailers.
Infusion was really a stellar product.
