I would imagine that you would serialize all the properties of the CFC into a wddx packet and then store that wddx packet as a client variable, which can then be deserialized and used to instantiate the CFC. You probably wouldn't want to store or retrieve the packet on each page request, but this would allow you to store the CFC's properties for the client machine for a longer period of time than session variables. I have no idea re: "J2EE sessions". S.
