Point of clarification Jrun (app server) can have multiple ColdFusion deployments (WARs or EARs) and while they share the same JVM they are separate. In other words, you could have CF Instance 1 with an application named MyApp and a cf instance 2 with an application named MyApp and they would not share anything in Application Scope (or Server scope for that matter). The only case where this is not entirely true, as far as I am aware, is in WebSphere and that is a slighly different beast with how WAS is setup.
