We are using Apache 2.2, so we are using prefork. So no problems using PHp-fpm and prefork on Apache 2.2?
php-fpm is a separate service from apache httpd. Requests are proxied from Apache httpd to php-fpm. So while it doesn't matter which MPM you're running on the front-end server (or, indeed, if you're running Apache httpd at all), we do rather strongly recommend that you 1) upgrade to 2.4 if at all possible, and 2) don't use prefork unless there's some compelling reason to do so. In the old days, the compelling reason to use prefork was that you were using it in conjunction with mod_php, which had possible threading problems (to oversimplify). If you're using php-fpm instead of using mod_php, then there's really no reason any more to use prefork.
