That would be nice information to find out, but does not seem to be available.
If you are serving up a lot of static file, you will see an improvement. If it is all dynamic PHP requests, then you won't. Apache really doesn't have much to do on a PHP request so all the performance depends on the speed of PHP, not Apache. There are a few places where Apache2 has improved things for a PHP request, but these tend to be countered by a few places where things have gotten ore expensive. Every benchmark I have done puts PHP under Apache2 right in the same ballpark as PHP under Apache1 with Apache1 usually a little bit ahead. But do your own testing on your own platform. Other peoples' benchmarks are meaningless.
