Re: [PHP] apache2 & php stability
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...

Re: [PHP] apache2 & php stability
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.

[PHP] apache2 & php stability
I have read at various places on the web that Apache 2 and PHP running as a module isn't recommended for production sites. Does anyone here run PHP 4/5 and Apache2 in a high load production environment with success? If so, whats your configuration?
