Yup.  Turn off CF debugging.  It is extremely inaccurate.  There are far
better tools out there for tracking runtime processing on CF servers.  When
a CF page has multiple includes and queries the built-in debugger does an
extremely poor job of tracking it (it takes more time to run the debugger
than the processes on that page, thus the inaccurate times). Turning this
off will increase performance.

You said you're running a high-end SQL application on the same box as
ColdFusion.  Do you have enough RAM?  A common problem I see with people who
start using FarCry is that they sometimes assume FarCry only needs a few
megs of RAM to run because their other smaller CF apps that use SQL run just
fine.  However, what they often fail to realize is that this is a SQL-based
application and that database servers require RAM to cache their data.

For production boxes I prefer to run either 2GB or 4GB of RAM.  Side note:
Most of my clients use MSSQL and unfortunately MS SQL2k has a limitation of
2GB RAM.  So I've asked many of them to increase to 4GB or better and to
move to MS SQL 2k5.  This is really only needed for very large sites though
(usually 10,000+ pages).

Please keep in mind that hardware settings aside you can do DB performance
enhancements.  Examples are DB clustering, FarCry caching, etc.

Hope this helps,
