You PHP gurus are too quiet on the General PHP questions board.

I need to know which type of PHP install I should do. I was planning on doing a dynamic module install as an Apcahe module but after my host solved the problem of no apxs script I got word back saying "I don't recommend loading PHP dynamically as it is slower to run/startup and could cause problems."

This is at odds with what Webmonkey says "The dynamic module (DSO, for "dynamic shared object") version of PHP saves you gobs of time in the long run. If, at some point, you decide recompile a PHP DSO to add or delete functionality, you don't have to recompile Apache when you recreate the DSO. All you need to do is stop and then restart Apache, which is why this combination of Apache and PHP as a DSO has been gaining in popularity since the PHP development team made it a possibility."

If the tech support at the host is right then I assume that leaves installing as a cgi binary. But I was under the impression a module for Apache was better.
What is the general consensus?
