CF5 is *NOT* written in Java.  Neo, or CF6 will be, but CF5 is definitely
100% not written in Java.

I would say though, that there is a good chance at least part of it was CF
anyways.  Some of the memory management in CF5 was changed to cause CF to
"give back" more RAM.  Some info on that should be listed in the CF5 release
notes I think...

The ODBC driver upgrade *could* have also contributed...

I guess this supports MM's argument that everyone should "upgrade to CF5!"
and all your problems will go away.  (well not quite all, but most)..
