I believe a large percentage of that time will be spent by your browser.

You have a table, then ~3950 formatted lines (<LI> tag).
 
It takes forever for a browser to format all of that.

Try hitting the page, while simultaneously running sar or top on the server,
see where the bottle neck is.

Hello there,

on my brand new Mailman box (quadriproc, a lot of memory, load near zero), I
have uploaded a 200 000 subscribers list, just to see what happens. The Web
interface sort of works, but is really slow

When I go to 
http://listes.rezo.net/mailman/admin/test2/members
it takes about 25 seconds to get the page.
And just a bit less to "search" a subscriber.

If the time is taken by sorting, I'd rather not sort and just use the
"search" box (I don't need the list view). If it's taken by loading the
subscribers base, then I think we have no hope but to wait for a MySQL-based
MM3.

So my question is: should I wait? If not, where should I start looking?
