As to the scalability of ColdFusion MX, now that it's tied to the J2EE architecture, scalability is a feature of the underlying engine. J2EE's excellent ability to scale means ColdFusion MX's ability to scale is much greater than in previous versions when it was built on a C++ engine.


The great thing about running ColdFusion MX on OSX is that it opens up the world of ColdFusion development to the legions of Mac developers out there. While I wouldn't advocate running a production site with the CF MX/OSX combo (it just isn't tuned for that - yet), it makes for a great development environment for ColdFusion MX applications.
