Don't think anyone has mentioned the issue of how much whitespace you may be sending to the browser. By just putting an cfoutput at the top and close at the bottom you run the risk of sending a lot of whitespace to the browser. And, yes, the browser will ignore it but it still has to be sent over the network/internet, etc.
Personally I prefer to just cfoutput around the html I am sending to the browser. Performance tests for 4.5 and 5 showed this to be faster I believe.
