No, the main motivation is that it's quite impossible to offer mod_perl to users as it's so risky. There're always ignorant users who upload scripts eating up resources....
At least, it makes the server admin feel more secure using FastCGI rather than mod_perl. For the Lighttpd, the reason using it just simply because it's lighter. I suspect anyone can recompile Apache and tune it to be that "light" (not sure, never tried.), but I can imagine that doing so is a painful process.... -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/lighttpd-and-FastCGI-tf1960789.html#a5559394 Sent from the Perl Mason - Users forum at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
