fwiw, we see on average 2 cf restarts per day.  Thankfully we have a script
set up in cron that checks every minute to be sure that cf is running.  If
it isn't we do a bit of house cleaning (like deleting the mail spool file
since that has been a major issue in the past) and then restart the process
automatically.

Without that script running, we'd be porting to PHP even faster than we are
now.
