Don’t forget to tell us about your stack!

OS: win10
Java Version: 11.0.7 (AdoptOpenJDK) 64bit
Tomcat Version: Apache Tomcat/9.0.50
Lucee Version: Lucee 5.3.7.48

Yes, that is how things work, though it’s a surprise for many. See a post I did on the topic, with a bit more that may help alleviate your concern. Granted, that was written for ACF, but you use the info to assess Lucee. Or maybe someone else will chime with other thoughts.
