I would guess that you can perform as many simultaneous HTTPS requests with
CFHTTP as you can plain old HTTP requests. Of course, each of them will
typically be serviced slower.

I don't think the current version supports HTTPS or any SSL/TLS type
encryption. There are third-party components which do, of course, such as
the Mabry HTTP/X library. In general, my complaints with CFHTTP haven't been
performance-related, but rather that it limits what you can do. That's not
an endorsement of CFHTTP's performance, though; I haven't been in a
situation where I'm using it so much that its performance is that important.
