I have some python scripts which convert reStructuredText to HTML 'on the fly' when xxxx.rst files are browsed.
When I look at the pages locally performance is acceptable but I have just tried remotely (from work) and it takes several minutes to display a new xxxx.rst page. Normal HTML and other stuff are shown at normal speed, I have some quite complex PHP (which I didn't write) being served by the same apache server and it's fine.
The same rst to html conversion works fine on the old server system and I haven't changed the code significantly, my code is only a wrapper around some standard Docutils stuff anyway.
Can anyone suggest any reason for remote access to this being so incredibly slow? It's probably some dire misconfiguration somewhere but I don't know where to start looking really.
