Installing lighttpd and FastCGI for Catalyst
From Dev411: The Code Wiki

One of the big benefits of using Catalyst web framework (http://www.catalystframework.org) is its ability to run on a variety of web servers and engines. Catalyst makes running your app on lighttpd and FastCGI breeze. FastCGI allows Catalyst to run in a persistent Perl process with the lighttpd web server. As an aside, while the FastCGI process is persistent, the connection between lighttpd and FastCGI isn't. The LiteSpeed webserver (http://litespeedtech.com/) supports persistent FastCGI connections but isn't open source (though there is a free standard version).

The following are notes on getting lighttpd running with FastCGI and Catalyst. Catalyst 5.65, lighttpd 1.4.10 and CentOS 4.2 were used for testing.
