that you do the following to max the speed.
1) Custom compile the kernel and system. This has the flollowing benefits: a) Removing things like sound support and extra drivers will reduce the kernels fingerprint in memory. b) Since you are compiling the kernel for whatever CPU you have (AMD in my case) it will also help with speed. Especially for encyrption (OpenSSL, etc)
My primary system is a AMD 3200+ with 2 Gigs of ram running FreeBSD 4.8. Custom
Kernel build to support the specific hardware and cards. I have never had any
speed problems. I am currently investigating the Tyan ADM Opteron board.
The system runs: OpenLDAP (All Auth comes from here) MySQL 2 Apache Web Servers (Http and Https) Snort Sendmail w/spamassassin and MIMEDefang Cryus IMAPD Currently my sites firewall
I hope that helps, Michael

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.
