The other thing to note though is that if you're an ISP and people are not
locking their variables properly then the alternative is probably going to
be worse (i.e. possible server crashes). I've set our server to Single
Threads mainly becuase we've got a lot of cold fusion sites hosted and you
never know what their code will have.
If you've got a dedicated server or only for inhouse devleopment (e.g. you
know what's on there) then I'd agree with Philip..
Any thoughts on this?

If it's a real-world site, then hell yeah!
Think about this - if you're reading from a database and your queries and
calculations take 2-3 seconds, then nobody else can get a result from your
server until that process has finished!
Allaire has guidelines on how many threads you should set your server to (I
think it's something like 3-4 per processor), but I still think that's a
little low (especially if your machine only server CF and the website)
