I should have been clearer, in that the application in question used multiple CFMODULE calls to recursively call the Fusebox core and populate several sections of content. Other than the change from FB3 to FB4 (along with the elimination of the CFMODULEs), no other changes were made to the application. The processing time for an average page in this application dropped from 400 ms to 40 ms when using Fusebox 4 in production mode (a setting in the fusebox.xml file). Obviously, your mileage may vary, but I feel this is a pretty good example of the increase in performance that FB4 can deliver.
