Hello Chris, Not sure how well it would work for your particular situation, given the embedded nature, but one approach to this may be to run 2 completely separate apache instances.
This is often done on servers to distinguish between lightweight and heavy content: eg. have one stripped down apache for serving images and static HTML and another one for heavy dynamic content such as mod_perl. The main downside is that you would need to bind them to either separate IP addresses or separate ports. eg. have your heavy server bound to 127.0.0.1:80 and the lighter, faster one to 127.0.0.1:81. You can even proxy from the lighter to the heavier if it all needs to appear as a single IP/port combo from the outside. They could have completely different configurations or share as much or as little as required.
