That just made ugly code, uglier --
I cast all the loop variables as long & got the generated code below
(which ran slower)
-- reminds me of an experience I had when I worked for IBM and was
trying to get a software product out early, by getting pre-approval at
all the phases during the development cycle.
-- the result was that "expediting takes a little longer!"
-- so maybe Matt is right -- this is an entrophy -- "optimized code
runs a little slower!"

Here's the gen'd code:
Z.set(((java.lang.Object)("0")));
X.set(this.JavaCast("long",((java.lang.Object)("0"))));
Z.set(this.JavaCast("long",((java.lang.Object)("0"))));
this.WriteOutput((coldfusion.runtime.Cast._String(this._autoscalarize(LO
OPS))).concat(" Loops<br>"));
STIME.set(coldfusion.runtime.Cast._Object(this.GetTickCount()));
for
(X.set(((java.lang.Object)("1")));_compare(this._autoscalarize(X),100000
0.0)<=0;X.set(coldfusion.runtime.Cast._Object((coldfusion.runtime.Cast._
double(this._autoscalarize(X)))+(1.0)))){{
Z.set(coldfusion.runtime.Cast._Object((coldfusion.runtime.Cast._double(t
his._autoscalarize(Z)))+(coldfusion.runtime.Cast._double(this._autoscala
rize(X)))));
}
}
ETIME.set(coldfusion.runtime.Cast._Object(this.GetTickCount()));
