I thought the question was about the best way to deal with a high volume of traffic on a Web based database application - the fact that the original poster had mentioned CGI in his subject shouldnt preclude anyone making other suggestions - if all he had wanted was 'CGI can do that' he would have posted into another bunch of groups altogether.

Apache with mod_perl can emulate the CGI environment and won't spawn (other than those the server would do) processes.
