Hi, why 6.2?

For a prototype that involved using Mapscript to display complex polygon
layers, and dynamic generation of new layers with data stored in
a database and queries on the shapefiles it ended up taking an average 
response time of 2 seconds on a P4 1.5, 1GB RAM and SCSI (don't know 
SCSI what that is, sorry) disks.

On the other side, a basic application, that only displays static layers
and queries on them, on a P2 350 with 128MB RAM and IDE disks, it took
up an average response time of app. 1 second.
