This is unnecessary. The basic idea with FastCGI is you have a process sitting 
there that is waiting for a request, handles the request and goes back to 
waiting for the next one. mod_fcgid, spawn_fcgi and I’m sure other things take 
this a step further by farming out the requests over multiple processes. Often 
the processes will have a life of say 500 requests where they will be killed 
and replaced to protect against memory leaks etc. I’m sure there’s ways to 
dynamically start up more processes depending on server load too… Mind you it’s 
just as easy to spin up a whole new instance of your VPS these days… maybe in a 
different location closer to your customers.

Cheers
