But what does faster really mean? Apache on NT on a Pentium computer can
saturate a T1 line easily. Once your bandwidth is gone, what good does the
speed do?
I've set up several commercial web site with Apache on NT or 2000. I've
switched two companies from IIS to Apache and one company from Netscape
Enterpise 3.6 to Apache. Apache is VERY easy to install and configure.
Back to Geert. There is a file in the apache conf directory called
highperformance.conf-dist that you can use to maximize server performance.
How much RAM does this machine have? How fast is the processor? What else is
running on the machine?

Subject: Re: Apache very slow on WinNT
i'm just being objective here. the report was done by pc mag, not me.
besides, my friend is a developer in the iis team at microsoft. she has been
working there since iis was just a single file project! she said iis used to
be slower than apache. starting with iis 3.0, the performance catches up
with apache. and 4.0+ are faster as you can see in the pc mag review.
tks,
peter
