[thelist] CF: Managing the overhead?

Kind of curious, for those very fluent in Cold Fusion. Which which 
has the least overhead (which is quicker, requires less RAM)?

<cfset this="isMyQueryVar">

#this#
    Stuff
#this#
    Stuff
#this#

or

<cfoutput>#ThisIs.MyQueryVar#</cfoutput>
    Stuff
<cfoutput>#ThisIs.MyQueryVar#</cfoutput>
    Stuff
<cfoutput>#ThisIs.MyQueryVar#</cfoutput>

Another thing: I often put related queries all on one page (to 
include) so often, the queries have multiple ifs, to decide whether 
or not to be run. Will it really save on overhead to create a million 
includes, that need to be retrieved an run, or is it just as 
efficient to keep doing what I'm doing?

And does (for example) 17 milliseconds of processor time really make 
a significant difference in the long run?
