1.1 Performance

Some very quick tests showed a very apparent performance increase:

            Platform:       300Mhz Pentium MMX (Sony Vaio PCG-505TR), FreeBSD
            Program:        A script that first imported the standard library
                            cgi module, then output a single word "Hello!".
            Measuring tool: ab (included with apache), 1000 requests.

            Standard CGI:   5 requests/s
            Cgihandler:     40 requests/s
            As a handler:   140 requests/s
