Some of the slower websites I've seen where using Java - which is
supposedly way faster than Python. And even a static (pure HTML) web
site can become more than painfully slow if the server can't handle
the load, as anyone working in the field could tell you. But this is
obviously one more area where you are just totally clueless.
