Actually I have dealt with this and did some testing. What I ended up doing was creating an array with the look up vaules like so <CFSet ResultsArray= ArrayNew(1)>
<cfloop query = "QMyResults"> <CFSet ResultsArray[QuestionID]= QMyResults.SurveyResultsValue> <cfloop > And then instead of doing a QoQ I just feed it the ID I was trying to tease out like so #ResultsArray[MyID]# The QoQ was expensive in terms of execution time. The execution time for the report went from 30 seconds to around a second. I don't know if this is best practices but it did the trick.
