Martin, fastcgi will essentially give you speedups in these two cases: * with slow-to-open data connections (i.e. oracle, some gdal/ogr datasources?) if you use "CLOSE_CONNECTION=DEFER" * and/or when the cost of creation of a process becomes non negligible compared to the time that the mapserv process will actually be running for each request.
basically, there is little advantage of using fastcgi if your map draws are heavy, or if you are not using oracle connections.
