I wasn't questioning that the data wasn't inserted into the database, but that
the connection to the database is slow. If there had been trouble with
inserting into the database, it had been more likely you got some error
message displayed on the web page without redirection.

If you are using header("Location: http://example.net"), and it takes time
before you get redirected, then the fault is before the header statement, as
this redirection don't allow delay (it's possible to make redirection with
delay, but then you need to set the delay in seconds and would affect the
script in both servers).
In your reply to Jim you say it's a select statement that causes the problem,
then you may better ask your question at alt.php.sql than a general php
newsgroup or a Unix newsgroup, where they may not be that interested in
answering when it comes to irrelevant things like php and Linux.
