Apache 2.4 released!

Post by IcEWoLF »

Source: https://blogs.apache.org/foundation/ent ... celebrates
Numerous enhancements make Apache HTTP Server v2.4 ideally suited for Cloud environments. They include:
• Improved performance (lower resource utilization and better concurrency)
• Reduced memory usage
• Asyncronous I/O support
• Dynamic reverse proxy configuration
• Performance on par, or better, than pure event-driven Web servers
• More granular timeout and rate/resource limiting capability
• More finely-tuned caching support, tailored for high traffic servers and proxies.
I thought they would never release an update!
This update looks very promising!

Ventrilo is somewhat lame nowadays.
I don't remember when it was the last time they actually rolled out an update.

Back to topic, it will probably be few months before hosts & NFo considers to upgrade Apache because I am sure there will be many bugs/compatibility issues for a while.

Of course if you have a personal vds (me) then it will be probably nice for me to test out.
I actually use Litespeed, but the licensing fees is somewhat killer.
It's much faster than Apache and less hardware demanding.

Hopefully Apache 2.4 delivers what it was promised.
