No, I had also set the fastcgi options -restart and -autoupdate in my
httpd.conf. After restarting Apache it worked with good speed (but
still a bit slower than a php script calling info()); then I changed the
file foo.rb, it was reloaded because of -autoupdate, and after that it
was again very slow. There seems to be some bug with -restart and/or
-autoupdate; maybe it's the one described in
http://www.fastcgi.com/archives/fastcgi-developers/2002-July/002175.html.
I will try a more recent version of mod_fastcgi soon.
