What is the speed on the second request for the SpeedyCGI engine? 

Speedy should be about the same speed as CGI for the first request, but 
on the the second and subsequent requests (for each Speedy process) it 
should be faster as it will not need to re-load any modules used or 
re-initialize the application.
