I would not recommend using cfparam to initialize foo. Is it defined previously or is it not? If it is, you will get odd results. If it isn't, then there is no need to use cfparam. As to using cfset foo = foo + 1 vs IncrementValue I would be willing to bet that the difference in the long-run is negligible.
