Thanks for the info guys. I do have lots of client.cfid, etc under
currentversion/clients. I'll write something this weekend to move cvars
into a db and see what happens. Does CF automatically delete them out of
the registry after a period of inactivity? It seems like every one I
looked at had a hitcount of only 2 which I thought was weird.

Thanks,
Brian

You can pretty well bet that its client variable storage in the
registry.  Just because you haven't explicitly turned client var
storage on doesn't leave it off.

I'll bet you are accumulating just basic client.cfid, client.cftoken,
client.hitcount and client.lastvisit data.

I saw this happen to a client of mine running CF 5.  His registry
ballooned to over 200 mb before I got called in and got it under
control.

Move cvar storage to a database.  Anything.  Even Access is better
than the registry.  Then set cvar expiration to maybe 2 days and watch
to see if that fixes it.  Not sure if the registry shrinks when the
cvars get deleted

You should be able to go into the registry and find the repository
fairly easily.  Don't remember the exact location.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Macromedia/ColdFusion/CurrentVersion/Clients
