But wouldn't that same % difference in efficiency still hold exactly as
true, if the table were called a thousand times in a cgi environment?
If you have a machine that can do 500 X's per second, then it still
holds that the same machine can do 5000 X/10's per second.
It still matters, one would think. Or at least in use cases that involve
more than a few users.
