Hello there! I'm using mod_fcgid on several servers since Debian Sarge. On Debian Sarge all is running fine. But ALL three Etch-servers (1 updated from sarge, 2 freshly installed) have a delay-problem:
When I do a "apache2 reload", all spawned PHP-fcgi-tasks will die, which is normal behaviour. But when I then call a PHP-script from a webpage for the first time, it will take 1-2 seconds to initialize! When I call the PHP-script again, it will then load instantly. So why there is such a delay at the first call? All my servers with Sarge don't show this init-delay, only all servers with Etch. I first thought that the delay was caused by PHP (loading of all modules?), but this doesn't seem to apply: I tried to track down the problem and it seems that it will happen BEFORE suexec/PHP is loaded. To verify this, I patched suexec to exit immediatly at start. When I then load a PHP-script with the patched suexec, the delay is still there, and after that I receive the 500-Server error. Furthermore, when I call php5-cgi from the command-line, there is absolutely no delay. So I think the problem is in Apache or mod_fcgid. Any suggestions? I read the mail from Andre Hübner (28-Jan-2008, "prespawn of cgi-apps") and it seems that he has a similar problem because he wants to prespawn the tasks to prevent the big init-delay.
