medusa and apache proxy

[rprice@u...]

When a user accesses medusa directly (not through a proxy) it takes less than 1
second to display the page.

When a user accesses the same medusa server page via an apache proxy server, the
pages seem to hang at 66% loaded. It can then take anywhere from 2 to 60
seconds for the page to finally load. Another problem when accessing through
the proxy is that the browser occasionally indicates 'contacting server' for
many seconds before any information is transmitted. 

Any ideas why this would happen?

FYI I am using the most current version of medusa along with the old, orignal
CGIResponse.py ,cgi_module_publisher.py files.
