Running a MetaCard CGI should be no problem, performance-wise.
Loading a 4MB file would be though. We don't have any plans to
support FastCGI (or NSAPI or ISAPI or any of the other architectures
for doing this). You could build in support for it with Embedded
MetaCard, but if *I* were doing it, I'd use mchttpd and just direct
the CGI calls to a different port number on the server that goes
directly to the engine. This is going to be even faster than any of
these other alternatives and would be immensely easier to debug.

I think your English wasn't the problem, it was leaving out the small
detail that you were loading 4MB of data in your CGI ;-)
