Till the server reboots... it doesn't have a lifespan setting other than
"I'll be here till the server reboots."
You could use any number of mechanisms to refresh it...
As far as whether or not to create a CFC instance in the server scope
there's no reason not to. You need to be aware of various conflicts that
might occur... so I'd recommend named locks around any code that alters the
data if there's a chance that more than one actor will try to alter the
data. Basically, all the scopes are there to be used... my philosophy is to
use them (except client... outside very specific circumstances.)
