Jesse, The symptoms are exactly like the one described by Dane in the thread below with the exception that my setup was with mysql and also with sql server (tried both setup and the error persisted).
The other thing I want to add to Dane's description is that the problems I have experienced will only expose itself when the traffic load exceed beyond some point. So in intranet situations or small websites where you do not have any real traffic to speak of I do not think this problem will show its ugly head which explain why a lot of the companies that use CF doesn't know about it since they will never experience it. The CF was setup for a webserver with CF code all custom designed to server over well over 1 million dynamic CF pages per day. Windows version of CF 5 was able to handle it, barely, but Linux version doesn't even seem to be in the same league. Every possible configuration with the CF settings have been tried with no result to show for.
