Thanks Byron, Dave, Russ, and Gonzo for your helpful suggestions.  

There were a massive number of files on C:/windows/temp (1.6 GB worth), and I 
was only able to begin to delete them by running "del C:\windows\temp\*.*" from 
the command prompt.  Right now, there are still around 200 mb of files in that 
folder, but it's steadily decreasing.

I also un-checked "Save class files" under server settings > Caching and 
updated my JVM settings to:

# Arguments to VM
java.args=-server -Xmx1024m -Dsun.io.useCanonCaches=false -XX:MaxPermSize=256m 
-XX:+AggressiveHeap -XX:+UseParallelGC 
-Dcoldfusion.rootDir={application.home}/../ 
-Dcoldfusion.libPath={application.home}/../lib 
-Dcoldfusion.classPath={application.home}/../lib/updates,{application.home}/../lib,{application.home}/../gateway/lib/,{application.home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/flex/jars,{application.home}/../wwwroot/WEB-INF/cfform/jars

That combination of things definitely helped, and Coldfusion was able to start 
up in 2 minutes rather than 30.  

I suspect that the windows temp files were the culprit, and I'm going to work 
with my hosting provider to figure out why there were so many files in the that 
directory; but your advice has saved me hours of work.  

Eternally grateful,
Michael

You could try starting cf from the command line, may give you a bit more 
insight as to where things are lagging at startup.

Kill anything else running like anti virus, and etc that may be getting in the 
way.

Check c:/windows/temp, had a machine with obscene number of files in there one 
time and services would start really really slow.

If fusion reactor is running on there or anything similar, maybe disable that 
for now.
