I found the following information somewhere on the web (that means it must be true!)
How to Clear your CFMX Server Cache -
The CFMX server reads ColdFusion files and recompiles this information to Java Class files. Sometimes, after making changes to the JAR files within the ColdFusion library (/lib), or your CFM scripts, you may need to perform the following steps to 'clear your cache' as we like to call it.
The folder that contains the Java *.class files is in the location shown below. Your path may vary depending on your installation location.
e.g. C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\cfclasses
Make a backup of all the (*.class) files in a separate folder.
Stop the ColdFusion Application Server
Delete all (*.class) files in the "cfclasses" folder specified in above.
Start the ColdFusion Application Server
Anyways, from what I've read Coldfusion caches all your Coldfusion pages in this folder. If you make a lot of changes to your site, then you probably have a bunch of unused cache files. This can contribute to a slower site because the server has to search through those files whenever a page is accessed. One forum-fellow said he had 40,000 files in there, oh snap! I didn't have quite that many, but still, I'm glad I found out how to "clear my cache" (as they like to call it.)
