Gary and Sean,
Yes, this is exactly what we do with all of our commonly used
CFCs...they all reside in the APPLICATION scope as such:
APPLICATION.myCFC =
createObject('component', 'path_to_my_cfc.cfc_filename');
It saves us the overhead of instantiating the object each time, and thus
far has proven to work well under high load.
Each of our CFC's, however, never reference any APPLICATION vars (thanks
for the suggestion Sean). :) Any shared vars needing to be accessed are
passed INTO the CFC in an Init() function.
I can pass along a more clear code sample if you'd like.
Oh, and that is GREAT news about the page context bug. Thx for the
heads up on that.

Good. And the page context bug will get fixed in a future release of
CFMX.
