It was decided long ago to minimize the use of cgi scripts on the web pages due to the reliance on a single machine (remember that the web pages are mirrored all over the world).
The current problem is that ftp.debian.org is swamped and is the machine used for URLs in many places on the pages. Is it time we changed this policy and use lists where appropriate? Just thought I'd mention that cgi.debian.org = master.debian.org. The load for doing redirects, even if a large number of them, should be extrememly small.
