This is intriguing. I contacted the Apache folks about 6 months ago,
wondering if there would be any performance benefit to doing this.
Ignoring the expense of calling exec() on the CGI, they said they didn't
think there would be much. Obviously calling exec() could be removed by
something like FastCGI or some of the other persistent-CGI systems out
there.
I don't know of how security would benefit from a module, but I imagine
there might be benefits there.
Obviously a separate Apache module would escape any issues of using
FastCGI (non-free) or other external interfaces.
