> Is there any performance hit by setting CF to Single Thread?

If you're referring to the "single threaded sessions" option within the
Locking section, there is a potential performance hit. If, for example,
you're using frames within an application, and you're using CF to generate
the content within more than one of those frames, those CF scripts can't run
concurrently. I imagine that handling the request queue in this case might
get a bit complicated.

On the other hand, using single-threaded sessions means that you won't have
to worry about using CFLOCK with session variables, so if you have an
existing CF app which uses session variables without CFLOCK, it'll probably
run better under load with the single-threaded session option selected.
