Indeed python works very well with FastCGI, this is the way Django works
for example. But this requires some  small modification of the program
in question so that it speaks FastCGI. A simple working example is:
http://www.lpthe.jussieu.fr/~talon/show_index.fcgi
notably the function request_handler and the following (the rest is
irrelevant here). For the needed Apache configuration, the Django doc
is clear:
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/fastcgi/
the lighttpd configuration is in the comments at the beginning of my
script. I have checked that running through fcgi and lighttpd gives far
better performance that under Apache anyways.
