MPM - Multi-Processing Modules. These modules are responsible for binding to
IP/Port and supplying children processes for handling requests. The most
common MPM module (as far as i know) used on unix (Linux) machines with
apache2 is prefork since not all apache modules are thread-safe and this
module sort of 'emulates' apache 1.3 behavior. Each MPM module has its own
directives, i.e. [User] directive is avaliable for leader, perchild, prefork,
threadpool and worker MPM modules. You should check each module separately
and choose the one which fits your needs best.
