Re: apache2 & php stability

[Anthony Gauda <agauda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Apache2 is multithreaded and works better under higher loads with a 
smaller memory footprint. If you have 300 simul connections under apache 
1.3 you need 300 forks. The same load under apache 2 runs under 300 
threads. With Linux 2.6 threads are very lightweight and in terms of 
system resources very inexpensive to start.

Under a high load spike Apache 2 would, in theory, respond better.
