Well, this is interesting. I just benchmarked it, and
$Server->HTMLEncode() is 44.48 requests per second, while
Apache::Util::escape_html is 45.80 requests per second. I guess most of
the overhead in $Server->HTMLEncode() was due to multiple calls of the
function. (The <FANFIC> file is about 17k, by the way.)

Good point. I suppose if my script is "fast enough" and I keep trying to
optimizing it, I'm just using up my time that could better spent on
something else...
