When you are talking about pounding nails into boards, prying nails from boards, etc, my hammer is blazing fast. But when it comes to screwing things together, it leaves a lot to be desired. CF is an application server. It's designed to do some things very well, and other things not so well. Perl is a general-purpose programming language. It's going to be better for some things than CF, by a long shot. It's not as good as CF for what CF does best, or else we'd be writing our web apps in Perl.
