With lazy loading, you don't load everything at once, however, you defer the loading of images and scripts until they are actually needed.

Feature flags have completely changed the way that we approach application development. But, it's not all roses and unicorns. Feature flags also introduce a new type of technical debt which, left unchecked, will lead to critical code rot within the application. Ideally, all non-operational feature flags should be removed from the code once a feature is rolled-out. But, this rarely happens. Which means, the application becomes littered with obfuscated, misleading, and out-dated control-flows. https://www.bennadel.com/blog/3694-locating-launchdarkly-feature-flag-references-in-your-application-code-in-lucee-5-3-2-77.htm Tweet - CFCAMP - Don’t miss 3rd episode of Code MastersBeside awesome talks #cfcamp is always a lot of fun too.

This is useful where you have a slow, or computationally expensive, function as given the same arguments you’ll get the cached result instead of recalculating each time. The same can be done in CFML code.https://coldfusion.adobe.com/2019/08/memoize-functions-cfml/ Note: You can already used CachedWithin in lucee to cache functions https://docs.lucee.org/reference/tags/function.html Note 2: https://www.forgebox.io/view/CacheBack CFML JobsColdfusion Developer for TIRUVEN - Full Time in Irving, TX, United States5+ years of ColdFusion experience including MX 7 and 8 (including use of CFCs).
