I was fortunate enough to not do any cgi-bin .cgi based web development. But generally those who have do not seem to 'miss' those days. A project I recently joined has a performance issue when dealing with the pages that need to communicate to a legacy system that has a CGI-BIN based API. That system is COGNOS 7. The feedback I re...

Perhaps t...
