If nobody does, we are try to write one.
I do not think that built-in nginx PHP will be better than Apache's one.
For example, thttpd has PHP support, but all connections are blocked
while PHP processes an request.
It should be possible to run the PHP code in a separate thread.
This is what I'm planning to to with mod_wsgi, in order to support
"legacy" applications.
Here is the idea:
1) mod_wsgi creates a pipe and register the file descriptor with the
event module; it also creates a read event
2) mod_wsgi creates a worker thread (only one thread per worker process)
where the Python code will be executed
3) when the request handler is called, mod_wsgi setups the read event,
dispatches the "job" to the worker thread and returns control to
Nginx
4) when the code execution is terminated, the thread writes a character
to the pipe.
This will calls an handler in the main thread that will retrieve the
"job" result, sending it to the client.
The "job" result is protected with a lock (the worker thread will
wait until the lock is released by the main thread).
