The problem with email is, no one can tell what's intended as a joke without
the use of emoticons. I realize that the module itself is unlikely to crash
your server.

Perhaps, but that's not my point, which is simply that because CF MX will
"ride" on top of an existing J2EE server, you probably won't have to know as
much about the internals of CF MX to tune your server - instead, you'll have
to know about the specifics of WebLogic or JRun or whatever you choose. I
suspect that BEA and IBM might spend more time and money figuring out server
optimization than MM.
