From Macromedia documention (ColdFusion MX - Migrating ColdFusion 5
Applications)
Marcomedia has admitted calling COM Objects to be slower in CFMX cause they
use JNI. Macromedia tests results for calling COM Objects were
ColdFusion 5 completed = 50 Milliseconds
ColdFusion MX completed = 2-3 seconds.

Subject: RE: Coldfusion and COM Limitations
I'd dispute that. I've run several COM apps that worked with
CF 4 and 5 (and even CF 3!) on CF MX, and some work while others
don't. CF MX uses a third-party COM interface for Java, JIntegra.
I suspect that it has some limitations.
True, I should have put As good as they've got - it's better than
previous versions, but FAR from perfect...
I don't think this is an accurate representation; I think you can call
methods that take parameters in CF 3 and newer versions, as long as
those
parameters can be represented as strings or Variants. That hasn't
changed
much in newer versions, either.
In CF4.x I couldn't get methods with parameters to work at all, they
work better in CF5, but still not perfect, I never tried in CF3, so I
can't comment on that
Simple things like .replace() just wouldn't work in CF4.5 for me
