[Featureserver] Fastest implementation of FS

[Matt Priour]

Thanks for the info.
However what I really want to know is on a Windows machine:
1. Using PostGIS what is the best performing server configuration method : 
CGI, mod_python, or wsgi HTTP server?
2. Using OGR what is the best performing server configuration method : CGI, 
mod_python, or wsgi HTTP server?

Thanks

Use PostGIS if you can. If you can't, then using OGR is probably fine.
Everything else is specialized and not designed for use on 'standard'
GIS datasets.
