We are having the same problem on the development server.  It was an
upgrade from 4.0.1 to 4.5.1sp2. Today, I uninstalled the CF4.5.1sp2 per the
following Allaire instructions:

Uninstall ColdFusion using the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel Applet. 
Reboot. 
Delete the entire \cfusion directory tree. 
Delete the CFDOCS and CFIDE directories from your web root. 
Delete the HKLM\Software\Allaire registry folder. 
Delete any remaining ColdFusion services from the
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services registry folder. 
Delete cfml.ini from your Windows directory. 
Delete the following files from your Windows/System directory (you may not
find all of these): - CFFileProxy.dll - CFFtp.dll - CFFtp30.ocx - cfmsg.dll
- cfperfmon.dll - CFRds.dll - CFRegExp.dll - CFSDebug.dll -
CfShellFtpRds.dll - CFSourceControl.ocx - cfssvradmin.dll - cfvalidator.dll 

Reboot. 
Reinstall ColdFusion 

On the first reinstall, I went to 4.5 and then 4.5.1sp2.  It didn't help.
So I repeated the process and looked for more stuff in the registry related
to ColdFusion, WDDX and Allaire.  I deleted that stuff and reinstalled 4.5.
 That seemed to make a big difference as I wasn't seeing the queing of
requests under the same load as before.  

I guess the next step is to go to 4.5.1sp2 and see if it holds.
