CF (and Java in general) is a horrible language to do large-scale text
processing with.  Databases are better at it, by far.  A dedicated
text processing language (awk, perl, etc.) ought to be a fair amount
better than the DB, and then you get to native binaries.

For example, we use a shrinkwraped stats program for our main stats,
and then a collection of awk scripts (that feed a CF application) for
some custom stuff.  CF isn't the end-all be-all of programming
languages; anything outside the scope of HTML- and web service-based
web apps should be carefully considered.
