Not specifically for FASTGI solutions, but the document:
http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/ProcessesAndThreading
contains some discussion of multiprocess/multithread modes for Apache/
mod_wsgi. Some stuff in there about data sharing and GIL would still
apply to FASTCGI even though FASTCGI processes are distinct from
Apache.
For Django, if you use multithreading, make sure you use Django 1.0 as
older versions had potential multithreading issues. In Django 1.0,
only known threading issues are in obscure corner cases where certain
features used in ways which wouldn't normally be used.
Do note that your own application code still has to be multithread
safe.
