Talking Discussion: Apache Worker MPM with PHP

Apache Worker MPM with PHP
Quote:
Apache has two MPM modules that are in broad use - the Worker MPM and the Pre-fork MPM. PHP.net recommends that you use the Pre-fork MPM, while most site optimization experts would push you to utilize the threaded Worker MPM. Surprisingly, load testing showed a relatively small performance difference - and certainly not one that would push you towards a non-recommended implementation on your server.

You know... I have know idea. I don't have a single 64 bit machine at my disposal. I did find, however, that pre-fork MPM didn't show nearly the disparity in performance that we are all led to believe vs. the worker MPM. You have a larger footprint per server process vs. threads, but if you aren't running mod_perl, memory usage for pre-fork isn't that large.
