Enable full debugging output in ColdFusion. Do not forget to enable it
in each query statement (use the debug="true" attribute) to get query
stats. Compared to what you see when connecting to Oracle, anything
weird? In the NT Performance Monitor, what is the average request time,
queue time and db time?

If you have queries returning multiple rows, make sure you have a
blockfactor set, this can make up a significant difference. Are you
returning text fields in queries? What if you explicitly cast them to
varchar fields (SELECT textfield::varchar ...)?

What are your settings for connection pooling? How does the bahaviour
change when you change that setting? Are you using cfqueryparam by any
chance? What happens if you change that?
