Ken,
The cfid is incremented by one per user for that particular server.
The cftoken is a radomly generated number. By putting the two together you
get a unique id that in theory is unique to each individual user, but I
would not suggest trying to use that in a multiserver enviroment. I have
seen problems in the past using a domain cookie to span multiple servers. I
cluster that "sticks" an individual to a particular server once they have
started there session is the best way to go, if possible.

Subject: cfid/cftoken
does cfid relate to the application and cftoken relate to the individual
user? or does each user get one urltoken variable (cfid+cftoken) and that
is their identity for all applications on that server? what about if
they're using multiple cf servers? does cfid relate to the id of that
server? or would the domain of the cookie handle that?
