The answer the libraries in chapter VI. Function Reference of official PHP Manual version 03-01-2005 is specific. Now I think I understand the answer a bit better.

Technical support at the hosting provider told us there are still problems about safety of threads on php 5 + Apache 2 (management of memory).

As far as I know, threading should be a noticeable improvement in case of large systems. Is there something in the implementation of PHP 5 which does not allow for safe threading? If so, what it is? I am a big believer in keeping the base infrastructure as simple as possible. You are going to layer a lot of complexity on top of Apache and PHP in the form of your web applications. You want to make sure that your building blocks are rock solid so if you see a problem you can be confident that it is something you did wrong. If your base is shaky everything you build on top of it is going to be that much more unstable. I totally agree. Our problem is that we want to use the new php 5 object model, and at the same time would like to move to Apache 2 for several different reasons. There are 4 alternative solutions 0)php 5 + Apache 2 1)php 5 + Apache 2 pre-fork (not totally satisfactory, but better than have a system that is unstable) 2)php 5 + Apache 1.3.33 (which is not totally satisfactory, less than 0,1 in any case, but better than have a system that is unstable) 3)php 4 + Apache 2 (which is not totally satisfactory, less than 0,1,2 in any case, better than have a system that is unstable) which one does satisfy your condition of rock solid foundation? Or shall we stick with php 4 + Apache 1.3.33, which is VERY unsatisfactory because we cannot use the new object model? The server is a production server, so we must have rock solid solutions on it.
