[asterisk-users] Why "should not run FastAGI on the same server" ?

[Benjamin Jacob]

The entire idea of using FastAGI is to relieve the Asterisk server of handling all the processing done by the AGI processes spawned by AGI/DeadAGI on the current server. With FastAGI, the business logic processing is supposed to be done on another server, thereby reducing load on the current one.
