I ran the front page of my blog. Switching to lighttpd is easy, install it on a test server first and see if it works with your site. The biggest disadvantage of lighttpd is it does not have as many options (modules) available as Apache. This site has nice information : http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/installing-and-configuring-lighttpd-webserver-howto.html You do not need to compile lighttpd on most distros, although you may if you prefer.

A real test would be to test the welcome page of an OSCommerce website or a Joomla (with loads of articles inside). Could you explain how you change from one PHP accelerator to another ? I'm likel to switch from Apache to lighttpd, and with some production website I'll probably use the same tool to benchmark as you did. Regards, Thomas. Hi,

it must be some realistic code so that your benchmark is valid.

Could you explain how you change from one PHP accelerator to another ?

I’m likel to switch from Apache to lighttpd, and with some production website I’ll probably use the same tool to benchmark as you did.

The server was then hit with "ab -n 100 -c 10 http://server/index.php" to load the php into the accelerator (cache). "ab -n 100 -c 10 http://server/index.php" was then run a second time and those results were used. Platform : Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64
