who is using mod_fastcgi and who mod_fcgi? Can me tell someone the pros and cons? We are still using mod_fastcgi and we have a lot of problems. Did some have a good configuration example for both??

### RT3 FastCGI

What does "lot of problems" mean? Perhaps if you described the symptoms we could help fix the cause... I use mod_fastcgi on FreeBSD 6.1 with Apache 2.0, perl 5.8.8, SSL enabled. i have to do an apache reload (graceful restart) once per night to force it to restart the fastcgi processes as they seem to memory bloat and we process a lot of tickets. I'd love it if they had the equivalent of Apache::SizeLimit from mod_perl...
