Like John, we had good experiences with fastcgi for the past 5 years or so. That said, a recent O/S upgrade (RHEL 7.1) caused us to migrate to mod_fcgid, as we had no luck getting mod_fastcgi to work.

I can't say why this site disappeared, but this project is 'mature' at the least and the technology is probably not seeing updates much. And a lot of people are doing deployments using the front server as a proxy rather than other a protocol (for example running the server application on a stamen process with apache or nginx infrount via http or (ideally) via socket). As a result the approach is falling out of favor for no particularly good reason other than a lot of people just don't use it.

That said its solid and I would use mod_fastcgi (and I do on several production applications). I don't like mod_fcgid and have not had good luck with it.

Just go ahead and keep using it. As long as you understand how it works and know how to set it up its great. I think its just slowly harder to find the correct documentation around it.

I had problems getting mod_fcgid working well on my (small) catalyst setups.

I've had good luck so far with mod_proxy_fcgi (with apache 2.4.x)
