Hm, I think it's best you first try to find out whether the problem is
really due to the pre-commit hook. Maybe try to add some timing
logging, like in the link [2] from above (it requires perl, but
nothing more; and the overhead of that logging is really small, so I
leave it on all the time, so I can take a look if users complain about
problems).
Another possibility is that the server times out itself. You may have
some success by increasing the TimeOut value in httpd.conf (or
whatever .conf file is applicable).
Oh, and please don't top-post on this list (you should put your reply
below the text you're replying to, not above it). I've re-arranged
your mail to that effect.
Cheers,
