Okay, I have some excellent news to report. Well, excellent for me, not so much for you guys...
I can reproduce the problem on another system. Here's what I did: My Mac has Parallels installed. I created a new VM, downloaded Ubuntu Server 12.04, and installed it. Then I updated it with the latest patches. Then, following the recipe from the Book for "One step production deployment", I installed web2py 2.9.4. I then ran the same Welcome vs command line test. The result? Welcome: elapsed time: 0.0491468906403 command line: elapsed time: 0.00160121917725 Again, the command line is 30.6 times faster!!! What more evidence do you need? Sorry to say, but there is something wrong with web2py.
