One note if you use top and there are some equal values, you might get
more than the number you require returned. A simple fix is to add the
unique id at the end of the Order by list.

It would seem that TOP is more efficient because you're dropping the
extra
rows on the sql side instead of the cf side, thereby saving yourself
some
resources on the recordset transfer.

A quickie: Is there any benefit to using SELECT TOP n vs using the
MaxRows
attribute in cfquery?
