You'll wind up with a deadlock and timeout on the CFHTTP!
Here's how it goes... say you've got 3 users and 3 connections to CF. Those three users are all accessing the same page with the same cfhttp in it. Each of those templates calls cfhttp to another template. The web server gets the requests and puts them in the queue waiting to access to CF. 1) CF is sitting there waiting for a response from the CFHTTP, so the user is also waiting for a web page to come back. 2) The CFHTTP request is sitting in a queue waiting to get access to CF, but can't because all the connections are used up 3) Goto point 1, until CF gives up waiting for a response from CFHTTP and returns an error to the user. 4) The CFHTTP request gets onto the server, but the response has no where to go! One dead application!
