One important thing is if you're running multiple things off the same server. For exmaple, if you have a PHP wordpress install at blog.domain.com, and you have your main django site running at domain.com, using FCGI for both will dramatically reduce memory requirements. You don't really want to be embedding both a PHP and a Python interpreter in each non-media Apache call. --- David Zhou [EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
