It does not process code in a parallel manner, as you suggest. You could achieve something like what you're trying to do by using the async cfml gateway in CFMX 7 ENT to populate the db. Each call would just throw to the gateway and keep on processing the next line in your template. That seems the easiest way to achieve what you are looking to do. Otherwise, you have to processes synchronously.

Unfortunately, it runs extremely slow. It is running slow because of the way I coded it: I have a _udf.cfm template that contains all my functions. For each external website that I obtain a price from, I have a function that goes out, gets the price (either via web services or cfhttp requests), and then stores that price in a database. The problem is that my code calls each of those functions one at a time, not in parallel. I would LOVE to call all the functions at the same time and get back all the book prices at once, but I don't know how to do that. So, the question: How can I call all my cffunctions in parallel? Do I have to create some threads and have each thread run one of the functions? Would this be easier to do if my code was CFC based instead of function based?
