John,<br>
<br>
I was just going to publish it as guides on the website. I have no
great intention to change the ZendTo Installer to the php-fpm model.
I would need a lot more evidence from ZendTo site admins (i.e. you
folks!) before I considered changing the Installer.<br>
<br>
How might we benchmark ZendTo to see the difference on various
platforms?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Jules.<br>

I hope this will be an option, rather than a straight-up change.
It is my experience, albeit several years old, that gains from
switching Apache to the threaded-handler ("worker") were strongly
architecture-dependent.
<br>
<br>
Our SPARC servers with +100 thread-handlers were screaming-fast
with the threaded-handler. Our quad-core Intel servers performed
no better with the "worker" than with the "prefork" handler. I
have no idea how VMware (or other virtual server platforms) will
affect this calculus.

Do things because you should, not just because you can.
