Yes, includes. This might be the issue. Java might take longer to open and
close each instance compared to CF5 interpreting text files on the fly.

Of course my test was not wholly scientific. I took a selection of pages
within the website and repeatedly called these pages: there was a dramatic
difference. I then uninstalled and installed 5 and was shocked that 5 was
then faster.

Also did you say you access 40 or so pages in each hit?

Are these includes?
