It's easy enough to set up multiple virtual web servers on a single machine, and bind CF to one and your J2EE server of choice to another. If one crashes, it shouldn't affect the other too much, unless it's a really bad crash, I suppose. Of course, in a production environment you'd need to ensure that the two app servers didn't fight for resources too much. The only justification I've found for using CF's distributed mode is to increase security.
