Michael, check out what happens when you remove the second line from both
(cfscript for loop and cfloop) loops. If you only have one statement in the
loop, the cfloop speeds up enough to beat cfscript.
Also, this:
for(i=1; i LTE 10000; i = i + 1){
is a lot faster than
for(i=1; i LTE Var; i = i + 1){
