This tag can speed up most ColdFusion pages by a factor of 10 to 100 times! It's most effective if you're doing a lot of CF processing or have a slow database query. Basically, the worst your situation the better you'll come out of it! Here are some other reasons to use CF_TurboCache:

• Some pages take too long to process and you want to knock it down to just 10ms or less. A decent server can take a 600ms page down to just 6ms.
• You are using an Access database & are worried about stressing it too much - Access is not recommended for production databases, but you can get away with it in many cases if you cache properly!
• You are using a lot of slow database queries (even Oracle can slow down)
• Your website is reaching capacity or is too slow and you want to make it faster and increase capacity.
• You have some CPU intensive database or ColdFusion code that's being executed everytime someone hits the page. If your code isn't generating absolutely unique results then this is a pointless waste of resource.
• You're worried your server may not cope with the usage it's going to get and you need to take precautions to maximise its capacity.
• Your hosting company has disabled the CFFILE and CFDIRECTORY tags which means you can't use Allaire's CFCACHE tag.
• Caching to disk is too slow for your needs.
• You want to cache the content of a CFINCLUDE and some other caching custom tags you've tried won't let you do that.
