On CentOS, php-fpm can be easily installed via CentALT yum repository. This requires epel repository too and will pull down any dependencies if needed.

Install EPEL release:

rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
Install CentALT release:

rpm -Uvh http://centos.alt.ru/repository/centos/5/x86_64/centalt-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
Install via yum:

yum --enablerepo=CentALT --enablerepo=epel install php-fpm
Look through and edit /etc/php-fpm.conf . The config options are well commented... also available at php-fpm.org
The default settings should work quite well.
Bring up the service via:

/etc/init.d/php-fpm start
