I'm proxying nginx to apache, not vice versa. As I said, nginx is main frontend, apache backend is used only as CGI interface. A few years ago, when I've configured that server, nginx+php-fastcgi was significantly faster then apache+mod_php and even apache+php-fastcgi. For most recent versions of apache picture probably changed, but nobody will pay me for migrating couple dozens of production sites to apache. -- Alexei. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Find and fix application performance issues faster with Applications Manager Applications Manager provides deep performance insights into multiple tiers of your business applications.
