Hi.
Before anyone gets too het up about <cfswitch> vs <cfif>/<cfelseif>...
What sort of performance difference are we talking here?  Has anyone got an
actual metrics?  I seems to me that both switches and conditional statements
are very low-level operations, and any performance difference between the
two would - intrinsically - be miniscule compared to [any other performance
consideration one might have].

If that was the case (supposition on my part, sure), I'd put more weight on
"clarity of intent" and I think a switch is more appropriate for "different
possibilities for the same expression"; whereas if/elseif is only
appropriate for "different possibilities for different expressions".
