Nope, it was certainly cgi. When I fetch time after importing and after the script finishes, the difference is 4 milliseconds. If I import the modules apart from cgi after I fetch the first time, there is added about 1 millisecond to the difference. When I also import cgi after taking the time, the difference grows with 95 milliseconds. So for one reason ore another, cgi is very expensive. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
