I use python cgi for our intranet application.
When I measure time, the script takes 4s to finish. But after that, it still takes another 11s to show the screen in the browser. The screen is build with tables (size: 10 KB, 91 KB uncompressed) and has a large css file (5 KB, 58 KB uncompressed).
I used YSlow and did as much optimization as suggested. Gzipping etc. Firebug Net says: 11s for the file.
How do I measure where these last 11 seconds are needed for? Is it just the size of the HTML, or the table structure? Anyone more ideas for tweaking?
