And with a box hitting +250 req/sec on a custom tag based application on a single CPU, I haven't. The whole performance situation depends on the application, as well as the code in the custom tags.
If you experience serious performance problems due to IO traffic, or heavy custom tag execution, people should seriously consider caching techniques. I personally stepped into a combination of cfmodule and cfc's. A lot of business logic can be persistent, and can be used in a application scope, preventing unneeded interpreting of reusable code. A combination of these can give you a killer app, but it strongly depends on your architecture. To write a good application, knowing ColdFusion is only 1% and most people don't seem to understand that until they are confronted with architectures providing speed, reliability, robustness and developer support. Most people then start buying books about architecture..
