I don't think that is how the CFAS works. From what I understand, each
request, regardless of whether they are hitting the same template or not,
gets its own thread on the server. So no matter how many users are hitting
your index.cfm, they aren't stepping on each other trying to read that file
(it is read only, after all). Now, locking up a database, or using too many
calls to application or session vars without locking them, is a different
issue altogether.
One load test we ran at an old job of mine was running something like
100-300 users clicking simultaneously in a Fusebox application. The server
never failed for a test run of almost 24 hours. Requests were getting
queued, but very few ever actually timed out (like 2% or something), and
that was WAY more users than we ever expected on the site at one time.
