Thanks Eric for the reply.

So, is it possible to run PHP in Apache, with each client-request being serviced in a different thread (and not a new-process-per-new-request)? Because, it is a well known fact that a process is a much-higher

If not, Apache-Tomcat looks to be clear winner over PHP-in-Apache (please correct me if I am wrong) :)

Please, I must say at the outset that I am not in favour, or against any technology, but just wish to gauge some inputs on Apache internals, from the Apache experts :)

It's not a point of differentation. You can run either technology many
different overlapping ways.
