During our robustness/performance testing of ServletExec, we've
discovered that Apache/Windows is the slowest web server, by a very large
margin, of any of the web servers we support on the x86 platform (IIS,
Netscape, and Apache). On the same machine (PII/400MHz, 128M RAM),
Apache/Windows/ServletExec is nearly twice as slow as
Apache/Linux/ServletExec.
By far the fastest web server for running ServletExec on Windows is
Microsoft IIS, which is twice as fast as Netscape Enterprise, and more
than 5 times faster than Apache. So if you want faster performance on an
x86 machine, you should consider either: (1) switch to Microsoft IIS; or,
(2) switch to Linux.
