Hi,
I have a few CGI scripts in Python running on my school account here
and I was thinking about approaching the local lab to add a Python
module to the Apache server to speed up script processing.
I see at least four choices for Apache:
- mod_python
- mod_snake
- mod_pyapache
- fastcgi
I've looked around on the web and in newsgroups but haven't found
a good comparison of these options. Anyone tried out these modules
and have opinions?
Specifically, I'd like to get a comparison of:
- ease of setup (CGI stuff is low priority for our lab)
- ease of use
- performance
- resource-usage (our CGI server is a venerable SPARCstation 10
with 32MB RAM running Solaris 2.6 and Apache 1.3.12)
Thanks,
Manoj
