I write down a note not to forget those comparisons if we choose to
re-implement in PHP4.
The speed can only be better with PHP4 as a module compared to PHP4 CGI,
though you have to get a lot of simultaneous queries to the server to
probably see a real difference.

If all the server does is process some pages from one or two browsers, the
CGI can't be so bad. It is when you have lots of concurrent request that the
CGI CreateProcess starts to be a pain.

Also the 0.20 had PHP4 beta code. The 1.0.0 will have the released PHP4
code. There may be also a difference there. Though I did not reviewed the
PHP4 code to see how it evolved between beta 4 and release.
