I find it hard to believe that using the AppleEvents path is faster then
direct script execution. Also if you mean by globals what I mean in this
case, they also get reloaded for every request to the server.
I tend to believe that the difference in performance is either due to some
misconfiguration of Apache or some problem with the script in the .mt file.
I'd be curious to take a look at the script if you are willing to email it
to me off the list.
