My qualm was having to write a custom script to manage spawn-fcgi
pools and it ignored the max requests environment variable (that must
be fixed by now)
Yes the only drawback with php-fpm is the custom build but if you want
an optimized binary with all the stuff you want and not the stuff you
don't want that's what of comes down to anyway.
I tried looking for an example of spawn-fcgi for something other than
php (very quickly though) and every example was for that...

I've had zero issues with spawn-fcgi over the last couple years. I
can't speak for anyone else, but the appeal of maintaining a custom
PHP
build is of zero interest to me.
Seems like spawn-fcgi is designed only for PHP ... fcgiwrap is aiming
for general purpose too... I would only see a benefit for spawn-fcgi
if it was useful for other things than PHP now that php-fpm is
there...
AFAIK, spawn-fcgi can be used to launch any FCGI app. I rarely use
FCGI *except* for PHP, but on Lighty spawn-fcgi is the de facto
standard
for launching a FCGI, so don't see how it could be PHP-specific...
unless you are asserting Lighty can only host PHP FCGI apps?
