What are the specs on the boxes that were/are running mythweb?

I run mythweb on the same box as mythtv and just use ssh port forwarding 
to access it over the internet if needed.  Right now when I ssh in then 
load up program listings it takes about 5 or 6 seconds to load, and 
refreshing is only about 2 or 3 seconds.

I would have to guess you're either using a 486 to run apache or 
something is wrong in your configuration.
