uwsgi protocol (and the uWSGI application server) is not python specific,
after python, the perl/psgi plugin is the most used behind uwsgi/uWSGI
(just as an example). The uWSGI application server can speak fastcgi too,
but uwsgi is preferred because it is a lot more simple to parse and to
generate.

From a performance point of view, there is no particular advantage.
