I also tried to switch to fastcgi+apache2.0.55 - freshly compiled. 
Works great and is much faster, however after 5-20minutes processes
start to hang and once that happens it's all downhill - 500 errors
like crazy.

[notice] Apache/2.0.55 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.0.55 OpenSSL/0.9.7a
mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 configured -- resuming normal operations

and then

[Thu Oct 20 12:53:19 2005] [error] [client 1.1.1.1] FastCGI: comm with
server "/opt/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi" aborted: error parsing
headers: malformed header 'Location="/Ticket/Display.html?id=18530"',
referer: http://my.server

a rt-test-dependencies is fine...

I tried playing around with the idle-timeout, processes, killInterval
options but never found a workaround.  I'd rather be stable with
mod_perl.

FastCgiServer /opt/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi -idle-timeout 120 -processes 10
FastCgiConfig -minProcesses 10 -killInterval 10
