Even though speed might not be a factor in upgrading if you areusing pre-fork and php/mod_perl/etc, at least mod_perl (version2) has significant
upgrades in how it interacts with apache2 vs. apache1.3. For me it has impacted speed and size, in that I've been able to do more with less... Thanks, Boysenberry boysenberrys.com | habitatlife.com | selfgnosis.com On Feb 24, 2006, at 10:38 AM, Joshua Slive wrote:

In general, 2.x will be faster than 1.3 and threaded mpms will use less resources than non-threaded servers on OSes with good threading libraries. But in reality, this is only going to matter if your site serves lots of static content. If you are using php/mod_perl/etc, the speed (or slowness) of your scripts will probably make any benefit of upgrading seem small.
