I agree with Walt very much. Apache is really a powerful beast. It is not
appropriate to jump to conclusions so soon. By far Apache is the most
popular web server and the most widely used. I myself run my personal server
Tomcat and Apache for my test development and it is reasonably fast. I run
on pentium 100 with 128mb ram.
Your hardware configuration counts a lot.
Unless clients stress upon, I keep away from IIS.
Also, get yourself a good book on Apache to learn the different modules, if
you really want to improve performance.
