In the last couple of weeks (months?) there's been some fixes regarding
performance and one regarding SSL thread safety. At least the performance fix
should be easily back-portable.

Not only that, it's also the default mpm.

As for the documentation and the ``Experimental'': I think we should drop
it - it's been long enough. Instead we should just state that in SSL mode,
event MPM defaults to the behaviour of worker. A warning regarding thread
safety might be due, as I'm affraid this:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1002824
won't be backportable.

Thank you, Igor.

Since under SSL it falls back to worker, there shouldn’t be an SSL thread 
safety issue then, correct?
Just trying to follow you. . .
