	I'm using Apache HTTPd v2.4.29 with ModPerl 2.0.10 in production 
without any major problems.  We're also using PostgreSQL DBD with DBI 
and ImageMagick, plus much more, but I mention these because DBI and 
ImageMagick are particularly significant modules for a lot of sites.

	I have noticed an improvement in performance, but it wasn't like 
with switching from Apache HTTPd v1.3 to v2.0 many years ago, which, 
as I recall, was a drastic improvement.

	Before upgrading from Apache HTTPd v2.2 to v2.4, I highly recommend 
refreshing your familiarity with the Order, Allow, and Require 
directives.  Also, if you're doing any authentication customization, 
you'll want to take extra care with testing this as I believe the 
authentication modules may have changed quite a bit too.

	I hope this helps.
