External FastCGI server - how to configure TCP/IP port

I have a FastCGI server of my own and I'd like to test Abyss with it.

This server accepts incoming TCP/IP connections on port # 101.

How do I configure Abyss to use it ?

Notice that I dont want Abyss to run anything (no exe/interpreter). I simply want it to connect to my server using a TCP/IP socket via localhost (127.0.0.1) on port # 101.

Can I do that ?

jabaltie,

The current version does not support this mode (i.e. connecting to an already running FastCGI server).

This feature is very easy to add and is already planned to be in the coming version.

OK.

I suggest you to reuse TCP/IP connections too.

Most servers out there open and close a TCP/IP connection to the external server on a request per request (hit per hit) basis.

Better it would be to reuse the TCP/IP connections amongst the requests.

There could be for instance a "connection lifetime" parameter.

Thanks !
