cgitb performance issue

[Ethan Furman]

Greetings!

I tried adding a form to our website for uploading large files.  
Personally, I dislike the forms that tell you you did something wrong 
and make you re-enter *all* your data again, so this one cycles and 
remembers your answers, and only prompts for the file once the rest of 
the entered data is good.  However, the first time the form loads it can 
take up to 30 seconds... any ideas why?

My server is using Apache 2.0.53 and Python 2.4.1 on a FreeBSD 5.4 system.

Thanks!
