No, CGI is not a good solution in this case, no matter what the language
(except those perverts who use something like C with dietlibc for this).
The base technology to make web requests fast in Python is something
like mod_python or a Python application server. On top of this I'd
recommend you use a Python web framework, of which there are numerous
ones. The hard part is to evaluate them and choose one.
FWIW I'm currently using Quixote running with mod_scgi against Apache,
mostly because I was fed up with the (lack of) Webware documentation,
which I tried first.
