I'll second the notion for a DTS package. I've been using them extensively lately to build downloadable subsets of data from SQL into an Access DB and they're FAST! Although I didn't have much luck running a DTS package from CF - I ended up writing an ASP script that handles the DTS package and I call it via CFHTTP and have the ASP script return a status code of success or fail. It's pretty easy and very powerful.
If you're interested I can send you the ASP script to run the DTS package.

We're on SQL Server 7.0. I should add that the query itself doesn't seem to be the problem -- it returns in a matter of seconds. The lag is almost certainly happening in the process of looping through the query results and appending each line to the file.
