Well, I suspect this is the ISAPI interface to CFMX. In IIS 5, you can select different application isolation levels. By default, unless you choose "Low", your application ISAPI extensions will be run by svchost.exe, rather than being run in-process by IIS itself. However, I don't know that changing the application isolation level will mean that you'll have more free processor time; it may then just be consumed by IIS instead of svchost.exe. But in general, you're supposed to see better performance with IIS by choosing "Low" and running ISAPIs in-process.
