You're inventing words that you think I said. The 'default' config is
entirely appropriate for django apps, it is however not high
performance.

I say 'default', because it is only the default on certain OS. On the
platform we serve on, FreeBSD, it is a simple choice which MPM to
choose, and the default configuration for Apache configured with
worker or event MPM is entirely on par with nginx/lighty.

On top of that, you get all the advantages of being part of the Apache
ecosystem. Apache 2.4.0 will be released this week (probably), with a
mass of enhancements:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/new_features_2_4.html

I'd thoroughly recommend not ignoring Apache in search of the new cool.

Cheers
