This is what I understand it to be (I could be wrong):

The fcgi client (apache) can be used to pass requests to multiple
backend fcgi servers, even ones on different machines.  Using apache
rewrite rules (I would presume) you can direct requests in round robin
or random fasion to your collection of fcgi servers.
