I'm using Euphoria CGI on many different sites (in particular, my Euphoria
page: http://www.cklester.com/euphoria/), some on Windows boxes and some
on Linux boxes. My books (http://www.cklester.com/books/) are also being
served up by a custom euBook application (which I intend fix and enhance
someday).

I came into CGI as a newbie and it wasn't that difficult. The main problem
was getting Apache configured. (I also had it running on IIS at one point,
but I prefer Apache for security reasons.) If I have any problems these
days, it's because 1) permissions aren't set properly, 2) I forgot to
include a "without warning" and my program spews warnings, or 3) I haven't
saved the file in a "Unix-compatible" format (Linux only).

I'm guessing that Euphoria is faster than PHP, in both execution time and,
for me, development time. Anybody know otherwise?
