Hi i have a sub that takes like 30 secs to run but i dont know why i have used the same sub in other cgi's and it runs instantly but this code takes ages i dont know why? code below:-

Code: 
#!/Perl/bin/perl

use CGI;

################################################################################

if ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq 'GET')
{
    @pairs = split(/&/, $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'});
}
else
{
	read(STDIN, $buffer, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});
	@pairs = split(/&/, $buffer);
}	
foreach $pair (@pairs) 
{
	($name, $value) = split(/=/, $pair);
	$value =~ tr/+/ /;
	$value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C", hex($1))/eg;
	$FORM{$name} = $value;	
}

################################################################################

$loginname = $FORM{login_name};
$playeremail = $FORM{player_email};
$playerchar = $FORM{player_character};
$loginpass = $FORM{login_password};

$loginlist ="REMOVED FOR SESATIVITY";
$forward = "../usermng.html";

if ($loginname eq "") {
	&error("a Login Name");
}
if ($playeremail eq "") {
	&error("an email address");
}
if ($playerchar eq "") {
	&error("a Player Character");
}
if ($loginpass eq "") {
	&error("a Player Password");
}
unless ($playeremail =~ m/\@/i) {
	&error("correct e-mail address");
}

if  (($loginname ne "") && ($loginpass ne "")) {


open(FILE, ">>$loginlist");
print FILE "$loginname\|$loginpass\|$playerchar\|$playeremail\n";
close(FILE);


print <<"htmlend";

print "<html><head><META HTTP-EQUIV=\"REFRESH\" CONTENT=\"0;URL=$forward\"></head></html>\n";

You have use CGI in there, but you're not using it. That shouldn't cause the problem though.

Have you tried printing debug statements to a log file to see if you can trace where the lag is occurring, is there a lot more data being passed to the page than what we're seeing here
