Even though speed might not be a factor in upgrading if you are
using pre-fork and php/mod_perl/etc, at least mod_perl (version2) has
significant
upgrades in how it interacts with apache2 vs. apache1.3.
For me it has impacted speed and size, in that I've been able to
do more with less...

Hi all,
This is my first post to the list, I am currently using
version
1.3.34 for our websites, I would like to hear about your experiences
about
the 2.0.x versions as they support Multithreading, MPMs, APR, etc,
specifically about any performance improvements over 1.3.x (which
uses the
pre-forking model), I am aware that the MT may not be suitable for all
configurations, we use Poweredge 2650's with Dual Xeons and HT, and
also
some Sparc Boxes.....
This is something you really need to test in your environment. In
general, 2.x will be faster than 1.3 and threaded mpms will use less
resources than non-threaded servers on OSes with good threading
libraries. But in reality, this is only going to matter if your site
serves lots of static content. If you are using php/mod_perl/etc, the
speed (or slowness) of your scripts will probably make any benefit of
upgrading seem small.
Joshua.
