I'm not sure why you would want to display that many records to the
browser, but I found that another web-development tool I use, talentsoft
Web+, can do what you need just fine.
I did a test in Web+ of 150,000 records in a simple MS Access database and
selected them and displayed them all to the screen simply using the
<webPrint query=...> loop tag (works similar to <cfOutput>).
It took a while (about the 45 seconds you mentioned) and correctly
displayed all 150,000 records.
If you feel you really need to display that many, you might want to try
talentsoft Web+ if you can't get CF to do this. Their url is
http://www.talentsoft.com.
Hope this helps.
