Thanks for that Martin.

I found a good for installing mod_accel http://www.aaanime.net/pmak/apache/mod_accel/ 
but unfortunately I couldn't get it to compile properly. It kept failing when I tried 
to do the last make for apache. Reverse proxying is turning out to be bar far the 
biggest challenge that I have encountered in setting up the server. I am just 
wondering if you could give me some idea of whether a midgard site would need a 
reverse proxy for our website. Our biggest month was 800,000 page impressions with the 
max hits per hour being 20,000. This doesn't seem much compared to what I have seen 
some sites do on hardware that is older than ours. I see your post on 
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=midgard-user&m=104011258731776&w=2 states that a 
properly configured LAMP system should take over a 1 million hists a day. Do you need 
a reverse proxy to do something like that with a midgard setup?

Using siege I can get 12 pages per second with a response time of 3.13 seconds when 
hitting a html page and the CPU usage doesn't get over 8.5% but hitting that same page 
straight in midgard I end up with 3.62 pages per second with a response time of 11.82 
seconds and CPU usage is 50%+

Is this what you would expect or does that suggest that I have not configured my mysql 
setup properly. It would be great if I had some sort of benchmark as to what a midgard 
setup could do.

Thanks for any help

John
