You might want to look into using something other than the CF application scope to cache objects (assuming that's what you're using). We've had pretty good experience using memcached. Though with ehcache now integrated in CF, I'd probably be looking at that instead.
Other than that, definitely look at JVM tuning. I'd agree - get someone else who knows it well to help you through that. It will save a lot of guesswork and you'll learn a lot through the process.
