Both are good. FastCGI may outperform in some case. There are other ares like code optimization and caching. Personally, I'd select mod_perl because it is well tested in production for a long time.

FastCGI, period. Either use mod_perl or FastCGI but not CGI (plain evil memory eating stuff).
Generally, FastCGI is used with Lighttpd or other web server in front of Apache (proxy stuff). You also need to consider memory footprint. Check out following docs: Six Apart Developer Documentation - FastCGI Benchmarks for Movable Type |

Sure you can run Python, perl, C, c++ as fastcgi under Apache or Lighttpd.
