A fastcgi (or similar, uwsgi is great) server gives you a lot of control over the application lifetime that you have to implement on your own if you use http.
You also have less control over buffering and since you don't see the actual connection, you have to rely on special headers to get things like remote ip and remote protocol. Not a big deal, but still nice.
