Assuming skilled CF developers leveraging best practices (ie, using a framework, breaking up presentation and business logic, utilizing a database access layer, making use of caching techniques where appropriate, etc), is there really a big performance problem with CF apps? I ask because from what I've seen, CF can handle "enterprise class" websites if the sites are well-architected.
Hearing someone say that CF won't scale to handle a big load makes me wonder if we're just talking about a poorly written app. Unfortunately because CF is so easy to learn, there's a lot of poorly written apps out there, which probably doesn't help the case of the CF-friendly developer very much. Beginners can pick CF up quick and produce something fairly impressive-looking in a short period of time, but that application isn't one that should be thrown into the breach for the long term (imho).
I'm just wondering what technical merit the argument that "CF won't scale like .NET" really has.

It'd be nice to see the sort of community support for an open source
CFML parser like there is for CFML and BD. I think this is an
interesting discussion. I don't think it's gone sour. Where do the .Net
proponents feel that Flex apps fit into this discussion?
