Test results using the Apache 0.62 beta server are available at
http://140.109.40.248/~taob/Bench/fbsd-apache.html. The hardware is
listed there. I'm typing up the results that I mentioned in my
previous message right now (demand vs. pre-forking NCSA httpd 1.4).
The upshot is that you can serve half a million requests a day with a
load average of less than 1 with a $2000 machine. You need to
recompile your kernel with more mbufs, but that's covered in the
report.
