Does anyone have a source for the support of named pipes mentioned in *Implementation Details*? I'm interested in the documentation of this feature and I just can't find documentation.
At the end of the paragraph containing "named pipes" there is a reference. I searched that document and found nothing about named pipes.
So to be clear: I'm not challenging the fact, but I'd love to see a reference so I could read more. Typical searching is turning up nothing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.111.18.150 ( talk) 00:21, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

I agree the original wording was misleading, but the word "rethinking" does really sit well when refering to a standardised protocol. I like the way it is described on cryp.to: "FastCGI is a variation of the CGI interface". Let me know if you have a problem with that or can conjure a better phrase. Jayvdb 09:17, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
We need to provide some concrete evidence to support our assertion that FastCGI has enjoyed something of a resurgence (indeed we really should provide a reference that supports our "FastCGI: the wilderness years" assertion too). -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 00:01, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
I removed all references to one connection per request since that's not always the case. Would mentioning that the protocol allows multiplexing multiple simultaneous requests over one connection be too much detail? Bo Lindbergh 14:28, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
Not to go off topic but can anyone comment on if mediawiki software should use FastCGI or not? T0lk 11:03, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
The sentence "FastCGI has enabled web application portability; in contrast, applications developed for embedded interpreters (such as mod_python) are often tightly bound to the Apache API" looks blatantly false to me, and should be removed. AFAIK any application written in PHP/Python/Perl will on Apache, IIS and any other supported web server, either using an interpreter compiled within the server, a module/dll, or CGI. It's only the module that is tightly bound to the webserver (but CGI, of course) not the application. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.38.134.39 ( talk) 21:07, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
It looks like the resurgence of FastCGI might be attributable to more people going on shared hosting services and they limit the kind of applications you can host directly. But it's strange how divided the community is. While PHP and Python and Ruby on Rails seem to all embrace FastCGI, the only Java implementation I can find dates from 1996 and is incomplete and not multi-threaded. It seems like there should be FCGI Connectors for JETTY and Tomcat such that one could run Java based services on shared hosting environments. But such a thing is not there. If anyone has heard of this, please comment here. Else I'll have to do this myself. Gschadow ( talk) 04:08, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
I have removed the link to the added by IP 109.165.113.58 to Project matreshka. This a small and relatively unknown software project, and not notable in WP terms. The fact that supports a FastCGI framework is not sufficient to deserve a link in Wikipedia. If we were to list every project and application that supported FastCGI, then this would be a very long article! -- TerryE ( talk) 10:57, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
