It depends on your app and how many specific features of CF 5 it uses. To get it somehow to work in CF 9 won't be too hard. Typical gotchas such as un-var'ed CFC function variables etc shouldn't occur as CF 5 didn't have anything of that.
Where I would expect issue are areas of - Charting/Graphing - Use of external non CFML customtags (DLLs or Java) - Implicit creation of structs by using dot-notation - Deprecated functions - Your overall system setup, e.g. you really want to setup a fresh server - Other external and third party stuff Again - hard to say, but I personally wouldn't do a 5-6-7-9 migration if there wasn't a clear reason for it. Not much point imho.
