First of all, Fast CGI will not use any less memory the mod_php. In
fact, it may use slightly more.

Are you saying you will be handling 300 requests concurrently? That
would be a very busy web server - with typical processing, you're
talking several million hits a day. If that's the case, memory isn't
going to be your only problem. In fact, it probably won't be your main
problem.

Also, if you are regularly using that much memory, chances are you're
code is quite inefficient. It's not unusual to require that much
occasionally. But not on a regular basis.
