Not sure at all what's the benefit of it vs what you use. Haven't hacked the kernel to make use of x-sendfile (I'm quite sure this makes a tremendous difference on downloads/webdav).
So how are things looking regarding that tutorial/blog entry and the performance comparison?
Fed up with non-reproducible but relatively frequent apache crashes due to the embedded PHP, I've yesterday switched to lighttpd + fast_cgi.
At the moment, my configuration is really simple, I'll post it during the weekend (basically what you can find on the net, plus a new regex to handle /content/download URLs even if the filetype is normally passed through).
Things I'd like to do:
* static cache support (should be easy with mod_magnet, haven't had the time yet)
* compression (mod_compress or maybe mod_deflate)
* PHP opcode caching (eaccelerator or xcache)
* mod_memcache for small files (is this sensible on a 1GB machine?) * mod_cache to make sure IE caches background images
Anything I need to add to the list? Known good settings? Stuff I should avoid?
