Bryan,
I failed to mention the fact that this runs on a linux system.
I understand the fragility of the registry no matter what platform however.
My discussion was merely to highlight the erradic problems that Cold Fusion
seems to experience when removing the access to the client variables data
store. this is to me more worriying than the performance/scalbility issues
related to registry-stored client vars.

The registry is a sort of database itself, but it is fragile and is ONLY
meant to store information required by the operating system. When you start
dumping hundreds of (long?) variables into the registry it hampers the
operating system's ability to retrieve the crucial information it requires.
Use cookies if you can't use a db, but remember that cookie size is limited
to 4000 characters.
