Hi folks,

  i've just dedicated some hours upon the nginx behavior/source code
(version 0.6.29, but also happens to 0.5.35)
  towards fastcgi protocol and discovered that the requestId is fixed,
it's simple always equal do 1, this break the
  the concurrency completely (as i've proved easily) and it also
causes early closed connections from the web
  server/client became out-of-sync with the request state in correctly
implemented fastcgi applications, not
  trying to be unpleasant, but i think that saying that nginx supports
fastcgi can do more harm than good to
  the project..  passing by just to say this, hope you guys find a
good solution, im out.



fastcgi is a good thing, see (and think) for yourself
