Although I've read (on this list) that the larger the block of code
inside cfoutputs, the more evaluation ColdFusion has to do, personal
testing has shown absolutely no difference in the execution time of
the page. Yet, I generally wrap only the necessary code anyway.
CF has to execute all CF tags no matter if they're inside a cfoutput
or not. Now, whether it inspects everything inside of <> or simply
looks for <CF..., I'm not sure. I would think the only additional
evaluation CF has to do inside of cfoutput is on what's inside of
unescaped # symbols.
