[FASTCGI] FastCGI PHP runtime configuration

[Simon]

Thanks a lot, I wasn't aware about htscanner, how does it impact the performance
of scripts in your experience?

Can you elaborate on using wrapper around php spawning process? unless
I'm misunderstanding you, you do not need a wrapper, you can simply pass
PHP ENV variable PHPRC and tell it which php.ini to load. I already do this
but this is limited to the entire poll and is only done once when you re/start
apache when it first creates the poll of FCGI PHP processes. The problem
is I have different websites or even scripts within the same website using
the same poll of FCGI PHP which need different runtime configuration, thus
the need for something like loading from  .htaccess 

Thank you!
Simon
