In my experience, this has occasionally caused severe performance
degradation, so you'll want to be very careful when doing this. In general,
I'd try to avoid doing it at all.
As others have mentioned, this often isn't necessary with CFMX.
Finally, you should be very careful when attempting to apply common sense to
expected performance outcomes. Very often, things don't behave in an
outwardly sensible manner, so before implementing something like this, it's
a very good idea to do some simple load testing and see what happens in
various cases.
