I was wondering whether anyone would mention FastCGI.  I recently developed a
moderately large app for a client, and we decided on FastCGI over
mod_perl for the architectural benefits (one web server + n app servers, etc). I
was not aware of any performance data comparing the two technologies.  Are you,
or are your results anecdotal?

Thanks...
