The slide you reference shows two graphs comparing apache + mod_wsgi
with nginx + uwsgi. The graphs demonstrate that according to their
tests the two are roughly equal in terms of requests-per-second and
memory size. They conclude that the application (not the web server)
is the bottleneck and recommend that people use what they're
comfortable with.
I don't construe that as Disqus officially preferring apache, but you
are certainly entitled to your own interpretation.
