On any serious operating system, accessing the same content will be memory-mapped after the first request, since from then on the file(s) in question will be cached. Reducing the complexity inside apache may even give a benefit.

I expected the memory mapped image to be quicker to load. But in our testing that did not seem to be the case. Should accessing a memory mapped image be quicker than non-memory mapped? I'm doing the below ab test to compare the performance, each 3 times: ab -n 100000 -c 20 http://abc.com/ If we disable MMAP, It takes 14.555 seconds, 12.775 seconds, 10.698 seconds. Average: 12.675s. If we enable MMAP, It takes 18.468 seconds, 13.882 seconds, 16.532 seconds Average: 16.294s.
