Comment (by tellyworth):

 wp_cron-fastcgi_finish.diff implements an optimization used on wp.com: it
 causes wp-cron.php to end the HTTP request immediately, rather than when
 it finishes processing.

 That helps when a blocking cron spawner is used, but only on fastcgi
 obviously.

 Props @vnsavage.
