yeah theres something very wrong there!! dunno what without you
attempting to rule out sugar, but yeah total time from first request
byte to last response byte can be 100ms or less with my php apache
setup which isnt stopped down, and runs on an old P3. admittedly
doesnt do a great deal but thats the typical time. your issue sounds
like a timeout somewhere, or very flaky connection to the dedicated
mysql box.... could it be network settings to that box, ave you used
any timings in your scripts to see where the hang is?
