I'm going back and tweaking a web app that I'm building and have learned a few stored procedure tricks (my SP skills were pretty basic before I started to play around). As a result, I'm replacing a number of CF queries (using cfqueryparam) with SQL Server stored procedures. Now, these are pretty much limited to the customer-facing (non-admin) pages, though I'm using SP's in the admin where I already have them written to return the rest sets that I need.
Realizing that SP's will give greater performance, the question is this: Is it OK to write your most frequently run queries as SP's and leave the rest of the site as straight SQL queries? Or should I just make the entire site SP's? What I've been doing during development is writing straight SQL until I get what I need, then I rewrite as a SP. I've replaced a dozen or so queries that are all on the customer-facing end of things, but there are well over 100 queries still written as SQL on the admin side, and it would take a bit of effort to convert (or merge into existing SP's) those queries.
