I know this is probably not what you want to hear but I'd guess that you have CF5 or below code there... We *used* to duplicate in the same way you did when we originally migrated to 6.1 but given that the locking issues are far less of an issue on CF6 and above, it is probably save to say you will see a major improvement in performance if you remove the duplicate and do a search/replace on your entire project changing Request.AppGlobal. to Application.
Once you've done that, test your code for race condtions and use <cflock> only where a race condition would cause havoc with your site. Stability and performance wise, you may just see an increase in your capacity without spending a penny on the hardware. Duplicate is a heavy tag to have to use especially on every page request like that...
