It's looking pretty bleak - we can't store CFCs in session because they take too much memory, and we can't instantiate per request because it takes too much CPU. Thank heavens for procedural programming. ;)
Seriously, though, I have high hopes of CF8 in this respect. We have the language features for OO, but trying to think OO with one eye on the performance monitor is just a bit too schizoid for me. Now it's up to Adobe to tune the app server. Failing that, you can always write your model in Java.
