anything about serving images, it only knows about parsing CFM and CFC
files, and returning that result to the webserver which upon serves the
files to the client. Images are handled by the webserver, unless you
specifically serve them with ColdFusion using for ex. cfcontent.
In fact, even the webserver doesn't know about the request for an image
from another domain by the client. In theory (in real life examples you
won't notice any difference) performance on the server would increase,
it does not have to serve some images anymore, but this is only part of
the webserver, not ColdFusion server.
The performance on the clientside though relies on the speed it gets
it's images. So if you get 5 images from a very fast server, and 2
images from a server which performs like shit through a straw, then you
can talk about a bad client performance, but this has nothing to do with
ColdFusion.
