PHP by default compiles as a non-pic shared library now which is just as fast as a static build inside Apache since it is the pic stuff that slows down a DSO. So there is really no need for static builds anymore, unless you happen to be on a fringe OS that doesn't support non-pic shared libs. > Still, I looked at lighttpd and it looks promising.

I think you are probably better off solving this in a lightweight frontend process. Chances are you are going to need lingerd if you go keepalive, so perhaps the real solution is to make lingerd handle not just the shutdown, but also the startup of the request. -Rasmus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
