Fast-CGI ties up the CGI until the request is handled. SCGI allows multiple requests to be
concurrently handled by a single CGI. This matters if handling one request has significant latency.
Apache 2.5 does not support fast-cgi out of the box and I think mod_proxy_fastcgi has fallen prey to
bitrot; I could not make it compile.

FastCGI is actually supported by apache and next versions should have it included.

Please discuss this on the PHP mailing list before sending feature requests.
PHP should not support each and every protocol out there, especially if it has NO advantage over
FastCGI. From the "spec":
"When the SCGI server sees the end of the request it sends back a response and closes the
connection. The format of the response is not specified by this protocol."
This "protocol spec" doesn't make any sense to me.
Note that there are several Java FastCGI servlets available, so there's no need to add more
complexity to the PHP core.

I tried to use FastCGI but I have 2 problems :
1) I didn't found the FastCGI binaries, do i need to recompile source (i'm using
Windows) ?
2) According to the FastCGI specification, when the FastCGI is started, the web server have to
pass the handle (file number) of the opened socket to the FastCGI. How can this be done with Java ?

It's just another FastCGI type protocol but far easier to implement, see http://python.ca/nas/scgi/protocol.txt for the
spec.
Creating a SCGI API would be fairly straight forward.
