If your lucky enough to have upgraded all of your CF servers to MX or
redsky, the comments below don't really mean much. We here have a mixed
bag of cf versions (we spend to much on contractors to upgrade software
i'm told ...) from 4.5 through to redsky 6.1.

If possible I always use a cfx tag over cf equivalent code. I have found
that a simple well written java tag is faster then poor performing cf
code. I/O on cf 4.5 is a classic example. Post MX integrating java objects
is quite a simple process. The ability to access core java packages from
cfscript is quite amazing and well worth looking into.

Used cffile recently to write out a large query object (pre mx)? Or how
about cfhttp through a proxy (pre redsky)?

Speed, performance.
