For a description of why you might want to change this, see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mpm.html and the docs for some of the other mpms like worker and event. In particular, a multi-threaded server can sometimes use substantially less memory. Joshua.
I see, so prefork is used if another mpm is not specified. I guess Gentoo builds mpm-prefork even if USE="-mpm-prefork" is specified (assuming another mpm is not specified). I use mod_perl and I can't use a threaded perl. Does that mean I can't use a threaded apache2? - Grant --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
