Joe made a fine point. Just because you instantiate a CFC on a page that
gets called does NOT mean it'll die after the page request is through IF you
instantiate it into the SERVER, APPLICATION or SESSION scope.
That said, I use this method, in my Application file, to instantiate
commonly used CFCs.
<cfscript>
// intialize the query manager CFC
APPLICATION.queryObj = CreateObject("component",
"includes.queryManager");
</cfscript>
And let's be honest here...if they weren't commonly used, we probably
wouldnt' make them into a CFC now would we?

Exactly! A CFC instance is just a variable like any other - put it in
the unnamed/variables scope and it only hangs out for the duration of
the page. Put it in application/session, and it'll stick around.
