I (personally) find using stored procedures instead of simple queries to be a nuisance for anything but large, cross-platform projects. Instead of replacing simple queries with stored procedures, you can just use <cfqueryparam> to get the same performance benefit (query plan reuse) in SQL Server or Oracle.
