One quick note - when you're benchmarking Seaside, you are always 
hitting the same session, which probably isn't a realistic load.  
Seaside serializes requests to a single session, so even though you are 
running ab with concurrency at 4, you are not actually getting any 
concurrency there.  If it were possible to use rotating URLs in your 
benchmarks, you might see better results (you might not, of course).  I 
don't think ab has a mode to do this, though...
