[ZendTo] Speeding up Apache

[Jules]

Folks,

If you take a look at
     zend.to/phpfpm
you will find my simple step-by-step guides for switching Apache to what 
may be a faster load-handling model on your system, and switching PHP 
over to php-fpm instead of the older mod_php.

The steps are as short and simple as I think I can make them!

Cheers,
Jules.

'Adversity is like a strong wind. I don't mean just that it holds
  us back from places we might otherwise go. It also tears away from
  us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that afterward we see
  ourselves as we really are, and not merely as we might like to be.'
