You're probably not going to get a whole lot of support, as CF9 is well past End Of Life (EOL).  However, you might consider updating to the latest supported JVM (which per this Adobe Blog article appears to be JDK 7).  You may also need some Java tuning.


Ultimately, you'd be well served to consider updating to the latest fully-supported version of ColdFusion (ColdFusion 2016, or at a minimum, ColdFusion 11).

Just to add that Java 7 support started with ColdFusion 9.0.2.

While I completely agree with Carl Von Stetten​, I would add one caveat regarding the latest CF9 supported JDK.  If you do upgrade to JDK7, and if you use Solr or Verity collections, JDK7 update 31 has been known to cause issues with collections.  I have not been able to find any workarounds for this issue.  We wound up having to upgrade to CF10 before this problem disappeared.

JDK7 update 25 works just fine with collections.  But it isn't as secure as update 31.

Just a heads up.

HTH,

Yes we are using verity collection in the application and also upgrading to 10 will not be possible now. Will CF 9 work fine with JDK7 update 25?

It may or may not be the cause, but that value is too large. Try 256m.
