OK, but I'd rather know up-front what's available to raise performance
should I have the problem, especially if that involves writing code in
a certain way to use eg. FastCGI, or even using totally different
tools such as writing this as an application server instead of *CGI
like PHP.

So there's no good real-life comparison available to compare those
four solutions to write web applications? For instance, I'd be
intested in hearing about business apps written in PHP in (CGI |
FastCGI | mod_php) vs. Java as an application server. Does it make a
difference? If not, did all those companies choose Java because of the
libraries?

What I'm driving at, is that I'd like to choose a technology based on
real-life data, not just because it's well know (whether it's PHP,
Ruby, Java, etc.)

Thank you.
