I think you will find that the difference (if any) is negligible. The
reason is that ColdFusion has to parse the entire contents of the template
whether you have a comment block, cfoutput block, or whatever. There is no
way that an interpretive parser would not have to parse every character in a
template file.
Where you can get a savings of sorts is by setting your template to enable
only cfoutput blocks so that all of the extra white space is not sent to the
browser - this will lower bandwidh usage and browser rendering time.
