The main directives you want to pay attention to with regards to pure performance are: Timeout KeepAlive MaxKeepAliveRequests KeepAliveTimeout MinSpareServers MaxSpareServers StartServers MaxClients MaxRequestsPerChild ListenBacklog See the apache documentation on tuning these. They are straight forward. I've had apache on i386 on a single proc serve 2k requests per second static conent without any trouble before. You'll have to recompile to up the hard server limit though. see "#define HARD_SERVER_LIMIT" in httpd.h Granted this is assuming you aren't just running out of bandwidth or anything silly like that.
