I would add that with servlets you have access to the wide java technology
and you can build open, rich and flexible solutions

Some can argue with me, but servlets/jsp seem to be faster becuase one they
are running, they are kept in memory and you have have DB connections that
stay connected. In CGI, the program has to load, connect to the DB, grab the
data, close the connection, then send the data. Much more work.
