Well it would have to be a page for which the Java classes created by CF for each CF template can't be reused... the only way I know to do that is to use <cffile> or the like to write the template repeatedly and include it. So it's have to be like <cffile action="write" file="#abspath#" output="#somecfmlscriptwithtwentymillionunnecessarypo undsymbols#"><cfinclude template="#relativepath#"> > No matter how you slice it though, the characters have to > be analyzed, > removed, etc., and that's going to translate into some > sort of > operation at some point.

Iirc you can disable caching of the java classes in CF7 -- I don't remember off the top of my head if that's available in 6.1 ... though you're not generally going to do that in production either... so yes, there is a cost, but you pay it once and even then it's minimal at best. s. isaac dealey 954.522.6080 new epoch : isn't it time for a change? add features without fixtures with the onTap open source framework http://macromedia.breezecentral.com/p49777853/ http://www.sys-con.com/author/?id=4806 http://www.fusiontap.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:200181 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
