Not too long ago someone was asking about log file scripts for coldfusion but all that was around was pearl scripts and so on.  It was also mentioned that this was the case becasue thats was pearl and so on is strong in, parsing text files and you probably shouldn't use CFML for such a task.
 
My question is this.  Why is this even an issue for CFML to do such a task.  We are using a JAVA base now which i would have thought would have been just as strong in dealing with these sort of tasks.  Yet I see things like processor usage shoot through the roof when ever any sort of load is placed on the CF server to do these sort of things.
 
Why is this? Is the java platform really being utilised to do these sort of tasks like loops and processing tasks like parsing through text files or is the CF server still using older techniques to perform these tasks?
 
As a followon, has anyone come up with ways to reduce the load on the server when actually performing these sorts of tasks?
