RE: Serialize a series of tag calls?

Matt, In the case of CF, the page request runs on a thread and all items in that page run within that thread therefore they are always sequential. However if you have a java or C++ extension that is in itself multi-threaded and can launch processes the whole thing becomes great fun but CF its
