cache it manually. Inside your CFC, before you return the result,
store it in an application-scope variable. Then, before you do the
processing, add a check to see if that variable is defined. If it is,
just return it, and skip the processing.
Here's some psuedo-code:
<cffunction name="getThing">
<cfset var thing = "" />
<cfif NOT structKeyExists(application, "myThing")>
<cfset thing = timeConsumingMethod() />
<cfset application.myThing = thing />
</cfif>
<cfreturn application.myThing />
</cffunction>
If you need to automatically expire the cache, you can set up a
scheduled task that will delete that variable from the application
scope as needed.
