The major difference in the way CGI and PHP are executed is that for 
every request , CGI creates new process, while PHP just creates a new 
thred.Hence php is processed faster than CGI.
Also, php has its own syntax(language syntax) while CGI is a 
technology,it can be implemented using perl, C++ etc.
does it give any idea?? :-)
