CF 4.5.x doesn't use that much by default; it depends on what you're doing,
and how much stuff you load into memory. For example, to enhance application
performance, you might decide to cache recordsets in CF. This is a good
thing, performance-wise, but if you do this, CF will have to store them in
memory. Likewise, some database drivers tend to require lots of memory to do
something, and afterwards, CF won't release the memory in the assumption
that it will be needed later. This isn't an issue, as long as there aren't
any memory leaks within CF or within any components used by CF. I'm fairly
confident that there aren't any memory leaks in CF itself; I've done a bit
of testing for that. I'm not confident about database components in general,
though.
As for Win2K, I can't say anything about how CF runs on it in a production
environment. I run it on my laptop, and it works fine, but I don't get that
much traffic on my laptop.
