There are lots of other variables you'd have to provide to answer this
question. How often is the page run? How many concurrent users run this page
at the same time? Does the page time increase significantly when it is run
concurrently? (This is very likely, by the way.)
The problem here is that you really can't simply look at how long one page
takes to execute in a vacuum. You really need to use a performance testing
process to determine how your application will run under the load that you
expect.
