For some reasons, big corporate customers want lots of features that are in a web server like apache and would also like the performance on their 8-CPU or 16-CPU machine to not suck at the same time. High ideals, I know, wanting all features *and* performance from the same tool... Next thing you know they'll want reliability or some such thing. Why does Tux keep you from taking advantage of all the feature of Apache? Anything Tux doesn't handle in it's fast path is simple fed up to Apache. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
