I'd be very surprised if its because you are running on PPC, although
you're toolchain may be setup badly.

I'd be chacking stuff outside of the webserver. Can you see if it is
running fast CGI or plain CGI? If the latter - it may well be the time
taken to load the interpreter.

I assume that the you are using very simple test pages which don't
interact with anything else and that html pages work as expected.
