Hi, Ashraf.

FCGI will boost just about everything, but you should know that *just* one
feature will not work with it: file upload progress. Please see
http://drupal.org/node/633862. If you can live without that (as I can,
speed is more important than upload progress, most of the times), you
should have no problems.
