actually any distro with a 2.6 kernel should already have it. You can 
check by doing a

getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION
if it says NPTL .xx you have it...

Are distros shipping with NPTL already?  I saw a Gentoo thread on how
to convert a system to use NPTL but peeps were having lots of glibc
issues at the time.  :(
I'm using 2.6 in a couple places, desktops and dev servers, but have
not tried NPTL yet.

Re: [PHP] apache2 & php stability

2004-11-29 Thread Anthony Gauda
Apache2 is multithreaded and works better under higher loads with a 
smaller memory footprint. If you have 300 simul connections under apache 
1.3 you need 300 forks. The same load under apache 2 runs under 300 
threads. With Linux 2.6 threads are very lightweight and in terms of 
system resources very inexpensive to start.

Under a high load spike Apache 2 would, in theory, respond better.

If so, whats your configuration?

I don't have any experiences to share with you about PHP5 and Apache2
except that I'm using them on a server at home so I can play with
Mojavi 3.
But I got a question for you..  What does Apache2 have that you need
feature-wise that Apache doesn't have already?  Just curious is all.
