can anyone tell me why I should use a unix domain socket instead of a tcp socket on localhst for fastcgi?
The advantage of the tcp approach is that you can put a loadbalancer (e.g. pythondirector or pound) between your apache and your zope, giving you fail-over and load balancing. In theory you could write a load balancer that worked on a unix domain socket and read fastcgi requests, but I'm not aware of any that are already out there for this. Anthony
