CC-ing to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the hopes that someone (**cough**wrowe?**cough**)
might shed some deeper insight into why things were/are done the way
they are, and what, if anything, would be needed to be done to make
things better.
I don't think that the problem is mod_perl, as much as the winnt MPM in
Apache2. The bottom line is that if anything goes wrong, you need the
singleton child process to recycle itself, and very often in the case of
mod_perl that can take a long time. But the essential problem still
exists with PHP, mod_python, even theoretically in a minimal vanilla
httpd install.

This is a disappointing piece of news. Perl itself is very useful on
the Windows environment. If modperl cannot be reliably deployed on
Windows, how can we expect the Windows developers (which form the
majority of developers) to consider adopting perl/ modperl for the
enterprise?
I hope we can find people who can testify otherwise...

YES! While it's acceptable for light and smallish applications, I've
never found it to be really usable once you're serving concurrent

Hello guys,
Just want to get some feedback from people here who use MP2 on
Windows for their production enviromment. For myself I have done MP2
on both FreeBSD and Windows platforms, and it seems to me that the
FreeBSD combo is more reliable. The Windows version on occasion (but
sure to happen) will throw out an error, and Apache will restart
automatically. Does anyone share the same experience?
