[Fawcett, David]

This sounds like a great start to a 'Mapfile Tuning' HowTo...

That's absolutely true. And it is read a few times for a map request
.....

Alternatively, you can strip all unused entries from your epsg file.
That's the approach we take here.

Best regards,

Do you use "init=epsg:xxxx" type of projection definitions in your 
layers? In the past I have found the EPSG codes lookup to be quite 
expensive. If you use that then you may find that using native proj4 
definitions for your projections might help.
