Apache MPM threadpool
Summary
Warning
This MPM is a developer playground and highly experimental, so it
may or may not work as expected.
This is an experimental variant of the standard worker MPM.
Rather than queuing connections like the worker MPM, the
threadpool
MPM queues idle worker threads and
hands each accepted connection to the next available worker.
The threadpool
MPM can't match the performance of
the worker
MPM in benchmark testing. As of 2.0.39,
some of the key load-throtting concepts from the threadpool
MPM have been incorporated into the worker
MPM. The threadpool
code is useful
primarily as a research platform. For general-purpose use and for any
production environments, use worker
instead.
