title: Django/mod_wsgi: First page loads up VERY slowly
body: <p>I'm trying to deploy my first django site through mod_wsgi (on a VPS that also serves PHP pages). Once the first django page is loaded the site runs pretty quick, but loading up that first page is excruciating - at least 15 seconds, sometimes 30 seconds+.</p>
  
  <p>During the first page loadup memory (384MB) is maxed out &amp; other tasks also slow to a crawl. I'm pretty new to django so not quite sure how to solve this. Unfortunately running django through it's own server (as opposed to one that also serves PHP) isn't really feasible.</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions appreciated.</p>
