Josh, I've had the same problem on a couple of my sites with bots. Possibly it's a java.lang.outofMemory error that you're running into on that page with the multiple requests - it was in my case.
If the out of memory error is reached after the processing of the page itself begins, the header status code returned is 200. Are your queries on that template cached? That will help a great deal. You can also <cflock> exclusively to prevent code in that template from being executed simultaneously.
