I guess FastCGI is supposed to be a long-running process in principle; however, I just learned from the folks who administer the servers that our FastCGI processes are automatically terminated after 15 minutes of inactivity and must be relaunched upon the next visit after that. This is definitely one cause of the sluggishness, so we may need to look elsewhere for hosting. I'll keep digging to see if there's anything else strange going on. Thanks again!
