FWIW, I use a bash script as my CGI. The simple 
way to do it is to have rrd-graph generate an 
image in a file and return an image reference tag 
- that way, as the script returns, there will be 
a file that will automatically be downloaded by 
the browser. rrd-graph has a nice facility where 
you can tell it to skip generating the file if 
it's already current - so if you reload a page, 
graphs may well already be there and you can skip 
the overhead of re-drawing them.

The script outputs the html for the page, rrd-graph generates the image files.
