Just curious, wouldn't a cherrypy sort of thing help there ? As for apache, I 
worked on different python projects and for small quick requests (not unlike 
tilecache) we got the best results with mod_wsgi (it has it's own set of 
problems, but there wasn't much question speedwise). Might be worth a shot if 
someone really needs every bit of performance.
