don't do a CFFILE ACTION="append", that'll be slow like nothing else. Build the entire file in memory, and then write it with a single CFFILE. If your memory won't handle it, then break it down into chunks (maybe a few hundred or a thousand records each), and write those chunks to the file, rather than each record.
