No, you're spot on with your comments. If someone wants to find the
addresses for us to send rants to ....

Yea. And did you read their BS about how "oh, no one writes Apache
modules because we say so so we don't have to do a fair comparison in that
area."
In their last version of their benchmark program I asked "hey, can we get
an Apache module included?" Their answer was no, but that they would try
to for the next version. I even sent them a module that does exactly what
their ISAPI and NSAPI modules do. But no, they don't give a damn. You
need to have people dedicated full time to hounding zd like MS and
probably NS before they will care.
Whatever.

reasons, so don't take what I say overly seriously...)

Does anyone actually have any benchmarks comparing Apache/API with
IIS/ISAPI? Oh, and and is mod_perl threadsafe?
