Well, the tutorial does say: "You've started the Django development server, a lightweight Web server written purely in Python. We've included this with Django so you can develop things rapidly, without having to deal with configuring a production server — such as Apache — until you're ready for production. Now's a good time to note: DON'T use this server in anything resembling a production environment. It's intended only for use while developing. (We're in the business of making Web frameworks, not Web servers.)" So the development server is a pure python implementation that has been written with simplicity in mind rather than performance. In addition to this, it reloads your code with every request so any changes you make are immediately reflected. So yes, it's going to be slow... You don't really quantify how slow it is or if it's unusable for you. If you're looking for a faster local deployment, your best bet is probably to setup apache, but you'll need to restart that every time you want changed code to take effect.
