CFScript is more efficient as long as you aren't just doing just a couple
<CFSET> or <CFIF>
The problem I have with CFSCRIPT and if() is that there is no elseif(), you
have to embed things in the else part of the code, which gets very deep if
you want to check loads of variations (and can't use switch, such as ranges)
CF4.5.2 has faster looping in CFSCRIPT than in CFML, so that's an advantage
Also, as Robert pointed out, no white-space!
