Hello,
SCGI module from Hackage is not working for me with Apache mod_scgi, I think because it uses LazyBytestring to hGetContents on a socket handle and the Apache side does not close the socket. Also, looking at the source I didn't see any fork* calls, so I assume it is not doing concurrency.
So I ended up writing a replacement and would like to invite comments. It does forkIO per request and, if asked to, timeouts those threads. So far it works for me on simple examples from http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Practical_web_programming_in_Haskell giving roughly 800 requests a second versus 250 on plain CGI (both through Apache).
Thanks!
Also, in general, is there any interest in using SCGI, or FastCGI (plain CGI, HappS, you name it) is vastly superior?
Good work. If you find it useful, upload it to hackage.haskell.org please! -- Don
