Hi,

I have a personal project running on plain CGI w/ CGI::App
and it's been running fine, reasonably fast for what I need.

The traffic is growing though, so I'd like to improve response time
considerably. I have settled on 2 main options, FastCGI and PSGI.

I think PSGI is my preferred option, but it would probably require
more work? Maybe not...

Regarding FastCGI, a quick search found me:

1) CGI::Fast, http://www.cgi-app.org/index.cgi?FastCGI
    requires more "conversion" work

2) CGI::Application::FastCGI,  
http://search.cpan.org/dist/CGI-Application-FastCGI/
    quite old, but less work to do?

I will start playing with this stuff soon,
but if you went through this already, I'd appreciate some
guidance.
