Whitespace can get to be major problem. We have gotten a huge
performance gain, by turning on enablecfoutputonly.
The ratio of whitespace to content was so bad, (Big CMS system) that
most of the page was whitespace. Once we cleaned that up, users spend
less time downloading whitespace, and our network had more capacity to
to serve real content (rather than whitespace). The effect it had on
load, and user response times was significant.

for the page processor to do.
Since the whole page is compiled ONCE and then just executed, I'm not
sure what you mean. Perhaps it was true in CF5 but that argument
doesn't really make sense with CFMX.
I tried this today for a reasonably complex page to see it would make a
difference. Initial findings are that it did but the difference wasn't big.
One thing that *might* be different is the generated whitespace. If
you have <cfoutput> only around stuff you want in the HTML stream,
then CFMX will generate less whitespace and that might lead to some
minor performance differences...
