-Description: FastCGI module for Apache

+Description: Apache 1 FastCGI module for long-running CGI scripts
+ This is a FastCGI module for the Apache 1.x web server. FastCGI is an
+ open standard for communicating between a web server and a long-running
+ web application. CGI scripts supporting FastCGI can be started as a
+ daemon and process multiple requests without restarting. This is
+ particularly useful for scripts written in languages like Perl, as it
+ saves the cost of recompiling the scripts and its loaded modules with
+ each invocation.
