If you use CF's query caching, you could increase the number of queries CF
is allowed to cache.  I've  always wondered if there is a way to determine
how many queries are cached "right now".

On my machines running CF 4.51 SP2 I usually see "committed bytes" for the
entire server at ~ 200 MB.  I've not understood those who suggest that 1-2GB
of memory are required for CF.  For a "singleton" server I would prefer to
put the money into RAID, redundant power, etc.
