I don't believe it's interpreted AND compiled. It is compiled. It USED TO BE interpreted.
From wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpreted_language: In computer programming, an interpreted language is a programming language whose programs may be executed from source form, by an interpreter. Any language may, in theory, be compiled or interpreted; therefore, this designation refers to languages' implementations rather than designs. From http://coldfusion.sys-con.com/read/42057.htm ColdFusion MX 6.1 comes with a brand new compiler, one that compiles from CFML to Java bytecode directly...
