FWIW ... I just got through a scheduled /. -- (the Koufax awards for best liberal blogs). The following: Movable Type 3.2 (a perl-based app with a trivial amount of php) Running on: Apache/2.0.55 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.0.55 OpenSSL/0.9.7e-p1 PHP/5.0.5 Running on 6.1-PRERELEASE Running on a 2-way Pentium III (996.85-MHz 686-class CPU) Ran w/o crash or disfunction (other than POST timeouts) with over 70 instances of perl v5.8.8 and httpd, with a load average in the mid-60s. We don't normally see that kind of load, though we had an LA of 100+ when we were subject to a large-scale distributed ad insertion campaign (hundreds of attack hosts), and the then-bogus MT anti-spam non-solution, that put the host into way-too-many-perl instances, all attempting to figure out if "Eat at Joe's" was a comment or comment-spam. Now that that's over I can think about Apache/2.2.0.
