I need to spawn the FastCGI process somehow. The purpose in the  
following: i have some time-consuming requests and 2 fcgi process  
normally. When such time-consuming request comes, it occupies the  
fastcgi process complittely, and if two such requests come, all two  
processes will be occupied and no more requests server can process.  
So i need the way to allow background running of such time-consuming  
actions (with the ability to pause/stop if user needs).  
I found some (unclear) information about fcgispawner class, can it be  
helpful?  
Any help is welcome!!!
