It's actually likely that they would -- in this context both the 
Cheetah template and the PSP page were being compiled into a Webware 
servlet.  The resulting code should be very similar for the three -- 
the only difference might be that Cheetah has a bit more overhead for 
variable access, but there's so little variable access that the 
difference could be lost in the connection overhead.
