The mod_wsgi code is not written by same person as who originally
wrote mod_python, although they (I), did help out a lot with last
mod_python release. :-)
And mod_wsgi has less performance/memory overheads than mod_python.
One can't really compare mod_python and fastcgi memory usage as they
have different ways of working. Performance comparisons are also
difficult as which server is used and how it is configured can
influence it.
FWIW, in practice which hosting mechanism you use generally matters
little to overall performance as it is usually the application or
database which are the bottleneck and better performance in underlying
hosting mechanism is swallowed up in that.
Use which ever you are happier with as far as understanding it and
which you find easier to configure and manage over time.
