Perhap Apache on Windows needs updating?
Perhap Apache on Windows needs to have patches offered. HTTP.SYS is an interesting technology and certainly fits the profile for an entirely separate MPM and core network stack, unrelated to the conventional httpd server. Several folks have kicked around the idea, but this is OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE. Until someone feels like doing to the work, it won't exist, and trolling doesn't encourage solutions in open source. On that friendly note; I happen to actually be deep inside of the Windows (*socket based*) MPM, and the Apache 2.3-alpha MPM now handles AcceptEx + Data (retrieving first packets optimization), along with a better/more effective 'classic' solution for accept based on WSAEventSelect(). It's already proven significantly faster in my initial tests, although I'm not seeing any big win from the change to accepting the initial data. We'll see how that evolves, there are still two more performance changes I'm designing into those listen/accept threads.
