snip - snip. This is indeed very interesting. I also had an impression that ZPT was sometimes evaluating things that it did not need to in the presence of conditional tags. How does the timing compare with a Script Python and with an external method on your machine? (Yes, I understand they are very different from ZPT and dtml, but I think this might be useful information for a Zope architect. And this would give a common baseline.)
