Christopher noted:

+| we have seen occasions where a user's browser will hang in

+| the CFLocation process.

This happens to me when I do complex redirects... a CFLOCATION to a page
which does a CFLOCATION to the previous page -- in effect a run-away loop --
consistently hangs the browser...

What sometimes causes the occasional behavior is a conditional branch to the
CFLOCATION, like, for instance, I have a login page which sends credentials
to a security module, which does a CFLOCATION to the login page when
credentials don't pass muster. I had set the cookie wrong once, or
something, and the login page would subsequently hit the security module
with the bad creds, and start the vicious loop again... the browser would
hang only if there were bad creds stored. After I introduced code to clean
this up, it got better!
