Maybe, maybe not. The only way to know is to try tuning it in your particular circumstances. Don't get hung up on one aspect of the system if you need performance, there are lots of things to consider in a complex system. What really matters is whether or not you are giving your users what they want. Ask them. 73, Ged.

There is some additional memory savings from sharing the opcode tree, but each Expect it to be better, but you don't get something (unlimited parallelism) for nothing (limited RAM). - Perrin

Apache2/mod_perl2 an order of magnitude more powerful?
Hi, I haven't installed Apache 2.0 yet but I like the sound of 250 worker threads set as the default! I would love to run 250 Apache children on my linux server but I just don't have enough memory (50 children max). 250 http server threads running concurrently would be an order of magnitude more powerful than my current set up. Have I got this right? or am I missing a big catch?
