Maybe, but on the other hand, it may be the way it is for a reason.

First of all, this is a common issue with code generators, which is all CF
really is when you think about it. This particular code generator is taking
code in a typeless language that provides high-level abstractions, and
converting it to strongly typed code, and it has to work not just with your
loop, but with all the legacy CFML code out there. I suspect that this is a
difficult task, and I wouldn't underestimate its complexity.

Second, I don't think your code is typical of what you'd find in a CF page;
a much more interesting test would be one that compared a typical page (with
queries, output, etc) in CF vs the same page in JSP. I suspect the disparity
there would be a lot less, if there even is any.

None of which I'm aware, really. I wouldn't recommend leaving it on in
production, though, since I imagine it takes longer to run and since you'll
end up with twice as many files in your cfclasses directory.
