I use FastCGI set-up here. Works fine, althoug there are some
limitations if used under Windows, - only ExternalApp directive is
supported. I can't compare its performance though, as I only tested
Apache + FastCGI + Rebol, but several folks here use Xitami + Rebol +
lrwp protocol, which is free and you can find it in library section of
View desktop.
