Just wonder why not many people using fastcgi in Apache, rather, people tends to use mod_php, mod_perl, mod_python etc.
I think you might find some positive movement in this area recently. For instance, see

Seems fastcgi is more popular in Lighttpd, are there technical reason behind?
As the other response points out, perhaps it has to do with the bigger ecosystem that allows you to run more language environments in-process without having to resort to other moving parts.
