Do you really believe this to be true for Apache2-prefork as well? It may be, I just have never seen any evidence of that in my own tests. Obviously both servers can easily fill a 100M connection when just serving up static files at which point it comes down to what sort of cpu load doing so puts on the server. I really don't see any compelling advantage of Apache2-prefork over Apache1 to justify the development costs involved in porting hundreds of modules. And I am not speaking with my PHP hat on here, by the way. And a threaded mpm is just not an option. Most humans are simply not smart enough to write threadsafe code. -Rasmus
