My numbers are all plain old vanilla CGI; fcgi would probably be better yet.

My hypothesis is that CGI gets its reputation because it has a
relatively high start up cost, so it gets horrible numbers for hello
world benchmarks. But, start up is a small percentage of a real world
program's actual running time, so for most non-trivial programs,
having faster code quickly erases CGI's initial deficit.
