I cannot answer your question directly as I've not used FastCGI, but I would think it would depend on the time within PHP. If simple quick things only were done then you might see a difference, but if long database calls from PHP were common in your application, then the CGI/DSO difference would probably be minimal. 1.3x/DSO is a known stable production environment. I don't know about 2.x/FastCGI but I use 2.x/DSO for development (httpd in prefork rather than worker) without problem. HTH Chris
