True when compared to FB3, but I'm not so sure when compared to FB2. FB2 had no core code - the only request overhead was URL2Attributes. FWIW I migrated an app from FB2 to FB3 and found it painfully slow and resource intensive. I then went to FB4 and it is running beautifully. Apart from initial startup (when it loads all the XML definition files into memory) the overhead is almost unnoticeable. I was sceptical at first but I think you will find FB4 _so_ much easier to maintain than FB2. Also, once you've sorted out your layouts, you can port between the two fairly easily provided you haven't done anything wierd in FB2 - just a case of rewriting your index.cfms to circuit.xml.cfms (oh, and recoding all your links). Migrating to Mach-ii will be more of a task - pretty much a rewrite probably as you are shifting to an object based methodology. Same applies if you move to an MVC model with FB4.
