Re: Apache prefork overload caused by Googlebot crawling many host-routed sites

Hello.

We know, there are images that have been built up in the past :)
CGI is slow because it forks a process for each request.
If it is a module of the Apache HTTP server, it is always on standby and continues running. For example, mod_perl or mod_php.
Since when did FastCGI become such an important IPC? :)

Not currently... but in the version I was using when I enabled HTTP/2 on the Apache HTTP server, the prefork MPM could not be used for the module for HTTP/2.
It's not just load issues, there are increasing situations where prefork MPM cannot be used.

Regards.
