Hi!

Sorry, but I not understand it fully.
I thinking about that:

    If I do this, only one interpreter created.
    And this interpreter serve all of the requests.
    So any concurrent requests are "need to pause" until the interpreter
    getting free state, and  ready to serve the next request.

Or I thinking wrong?
If not, that is making "slow" serving, or not?

Any question that if I must use cgi, can I use template system without 
any problems? Rendering is need apache import? If yes, it is not working 
in normal interpreter...

Thanks for your help:
