Synopsis: Question - CGI in memory State-Changed-From-To: open-closed State-Changed-By: dgaudet State-Changed-When: Sun Jul 20 15:31:47 PDT 1997 State-Changed-Why: If they are claiming that ISAPI is faster than CGI they are right, but apache already supports the Apache API which is equivalent to ISAPI.
If they are claiming that loading DLLs with some proprietary linkage is "CGI" ... then they're missing out on the "Common" part of the "Common Gateway Interface". This isn't CGI, it may be similar but unfortunately isn't CGI. CGI itself is slow, and it's easy to do better. For examples of systems which do work with Apache and provide "CGI-like" functionality with better performance visit http://www.apache.org/related_projects.html (look at mod_php and mod_perl), and http://www.fastcgi.com/.
