John,
That is pretty much the same conclusion that I came to as well
which is why Dave asked. The timing is actually at least twice
that because of the way that the manifest is sent to the client
which makes the timing more like 1/3 of a second for Apache/CherryPy
verses little over a second for Apache/cgi-bin. But when one
considers that an install will take several order magnitude longer
then this difference plus only being done once that performance
hit is insignificant. Coupled with the fact that using Apache/cgi-bin
will be less complex and we can improve on the client/server
handshake I think that the design needs to be re-worked.
I agree that we should look further in that direction. I think an
important aspect to consider is how we'd include this in wanboot's
secured (SSL authentication of both client & server, encrypted channel)
boot infrastructure.
