This is just a guess but if your server has AllowOverride set to something other than None and your DocumentRoot is /deeply/buried then Apache must stat() for a large number of .htaccess files. In this case, <number of includes> * <depth of DocumentRoot>. Php on the other hand just reads the files directly. -- noodl --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
