Why not ? Moving the import to the top level just causes the slowdown to
occur at a different moment. If this is really the problem, the slowdown
should occur only the first time you use a particular function (unless you
explicitly un-import cgi somehow ?)

Importing cgi only in the functions that actually use it, in order to avoid
the slowdown unless it's really necessary, sure seems like a sensible
solution to me :-)
