Hi,
thanks for input.
is the new httpd daemon ready for production?
For example is it safe to migrate Perl scripts from Apache 1.3/mod_perl1.3 to
httpd/FastCGI?
Are Perl scripts in FastCGI evaluated in same manner like in mod_perl, or
everytime a script is invoked by the server the Perl interpreter is invoked
also ?
>From manual pages:
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-5.6/man5/httpd.conf.5?query=ht
tpd.conf&sec=5&arch=amd64&manpath=OpenBSD-5.6
looks very impressive and I see that httpd(8) uses slowcgi(8) - an
implementation of FastCGI protocol - to execute cgi scripts, Perl or
otherwise.
I want to setup a 5.6 machine and test all these cool stuff but for the moment
I don't have access to such machine and I would like to see what other poeple
experienced with this httpd(8) daemon .
For me these new stuff looks very exciting and I can't wait to try it.
Thanks for any thoughts,
Bogdan

Just my 2c about the new httpd daemon. It's brand new in 5.6, and is
shaping up to be an awesome and simple server. I fully intend on
replacing nginx with it in production when 5.7 is released.
That being said, the 5.6 implementation has some issues that you may
want to research further if you'd like to use it. They've already been
fixed in -current.
